As she explains, "Like anything else I've ever written - even the most banal of blog posts - I am writing it because I can't not." We feel similarly about reading her blog. Harks got the idea to start writing online when her would-be husband thought it would be a great way to make fun of her then-stalker. This mom of three hasn't stopped pushing boundaries since. As expected with a tagline like "Mommy drinks because you cry," this blog is written with razor-sharp wit, but the thing that separates it from the sea of other sarcastic mom blogs is that there's substance underneath, as shown in posts like the one where Harks discusses "pre-partum" depression, or the 10-part story of her daughter's birth and what followed. When she's not writing on Mommy Wants Vodka, Harks also runs the group blog, Band Back Together, in which readers can share their own stories of triumph and tragedy.
