Rebecca Odes has been making stuff for females on the internets since the internets were wee. She cofounded gURL.com, the first major web site for teenage girls and a proto-social network. Then she went old school and published a bunch of books, including the bestselling sex/life guide DEAL WITH IT! and FROM THE HIPS, a guide to the life-altering person-to-parent transformation. She has also enjoyed an extended tour of the world of Mommy media, writing, blogging and consulting for Babble. When she is not making things on screens or paper, Rebecca might be making some art, or clothing, or rock music, or just doing her best not to make her husband, son and daughter miserable. She lives in New York.
