Between Friends

Between Friends zeroes in on the delicious little nitty-gritty details of the lives of three forty-something women friends.  Office politics, motherhood, romance and the pros and cons of Botox…nothing is sacred between Maeve, Susan and Kim in this contemporary, caffeinated and humorous woman-to-woman world.

Maeve is a sophisticated, savvy divorcee who’s at the top of her game in her career as a sales executive.  She wants to meet “Mr. Right”…eventually. Right now, she’s having too much fun skipping from one romantic escapade to the other. Susan is wry and self-doubting. She’s married to a funeral director named Harv, has an adopted daughter named Emma and is always two steps behind her life.  Kim is married to Derek and mom to her stepson, Danny.  As a freelance writer, she enjoys the perks of a flexible career…like irregular paychecks.

Witty and personal, sometimes poignant and candid, this slice-of-life strip celebrates the essence of women in all their stress-filled, scintillating glory.

Between Friends appears in more than 175 newspapers including the Toronto Star,Seattle Times, Cleveland Plain-Dealer and Arizona Republic and in 10 countries as far and wide as Australia, India, South Africa and Gua
