02. What I wish I knew before I became a mother

Part 02 of the paid Mother Artist- column

Hi there!

The following essay is part of the paid column “How to be a Mother-Artist”, which doubles as the serialisation for my next book. If you’re new to my work you may want to browse the free archive first (do so here), or get part one of the story which you can read in When Will You Get a Real Job?
