About the Author
I’m Kim France, a 61 year-old former magazine editor and writer who got to work at a lot of cool places, some of which are gone now: 7 Days, Sassy, Elle, New York, Spin, and Lucky, which I founded in 2000, and ran until I was bounced in 2010. I’ve written for a ton of publications too, from the New York Times Book Review to Slate to Rolling Stone. These days I live a quieter (and happier! ) life in Brooklyn with my husband and dog.
About the Title
Because when I started GOACA, I was in my 40s, and still felt a significant pull between feeling like a grown-up and thinking of myself as young and green—a girl.
