“Irreverent” Author Jill Kargman: “Sometimes I Feel Like a Nut”

“The funny thing is, I don’t even like coconut!” author Jill Kargman laughs at Ginger Boutique Tuesday night when asked her whether she prefers Mounds or Almond Joy.  Launching her latest, “Sometimes I Feel Like a Nut,”  which is her first foray into non-fiction, Kargman continues her crazy comedic writing career with a collection of playful essays and observations.


Surrounded by some of her closest friends, to include Sharon Bradley, Mary HaftMichelle Jaconi, Stacy Kerr and Susanna Quinn, she’s described as “irreverent” – and she likes it!

“One review said the F word and I are BFFs” she joked.  “And to that I say, if Chris Rock can say it, then why can’t a Mom of three?”


Unapologetic about the language and clearly not experiencing writer’s block, Kargmen dished on her next dark-humored project even as she was signing autographs for her current memoir release.  “I got the idea for this one while my husband and I were at a party sharing which celebrity we would most want to sleep with.”

(In case you were wondering , her pick was Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.)
