Melinda Roberts
Author of
The Mommy Blog
and Mommy Confidential
Mindy Roberts is the writer of The Mommy Blog and the author of Mommy Confidential: Adventures from the Wonderbelly of Motherhood. She is recently divorced and the single mom to three young children – 10-year-old son Logan, 8-year-old son Dylan, and 6-year-old daughter Daphne. Mindy survived the ups and downs of Silicon Valley’s tech bubble and worked in the nonprofit sector for twelve years before focusing mostly on her writing. Born and raised in Chicago, she lives with her family in California’s Bay Area.
Mindy spent twelve years as a mild-mannered nonprofit employee. In 2002, after the birth of her third child in four years, she began to write about her life and children in the sleepless hours in an effort to capture her young family’s world in real time. This chronicle of her family’s adventures and mishaps through a chaotic period of marital, emotional, and financial strife is retold in her first book, Mommy Confidential: Adventures From the Wonderbelly of Motherhood.
Witty, sarcastic, and always engaging, Mindy chronicles her life, and that of her children. She tackles the good and the bad with a broad stroke and a sense of humor that give her writing depth and an emotional pull.
Mindy is founder of TheMommyBlog.net, PearSoup.com, Wonderbelly.com, and a panelist on Momversation.com.
