Description:
The Mom Egg publishes work by mothers about everything and by everyone about mothers and motherhood. The Mom Egg is engaged in promoting and celebrating the creative force of mother artists, and in expanding the opportunities for mothers, women, and artists. The Mom Egg was founded in 2003 by Joy Rose, as the official literary magazine of Mamapalooza, an annual festival for mother-artists. At that time, it consisted of a few photocopied and stapled sheets of poems and lyrics. Alana Ruben Free, a poet and playwright, took the helm as editor, a post she held through 2008; Marjorie Tesser joined as an editor in 2006. The Mom Egg evolved into a perfect-bound paperback independent literary journal, an annual collection of poetry, fiction, creative prose, and visual art.
