Some nice things people say about me:

"A unique stand up theater artist"
HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

"A breath of fresh air, funny, witty, enlightening!"
WHOLE LIFE TIMES

"If you never imagined that you could laugh with and be intrigued by a book of poetry, now is the time to reconsider...boisterous, subtle and probing...lively, full of playfulness and pitch-perfect perception of modern living...humor, surprises and moments of sharp insight, especially when the poems touch on politics."
THE FEMINIST REVIEW

"Brilliant, inspired, fun!!"
LA WEEKLY

"This is currently my favorite book of all time. It addresses the big picture, the little picture, and everything else in between in the most wonderfully wise and witty way."
BRUCE ERIC KAPLAN (cartoonist for the New Yorker, author of "no One You Know", "This is a Bad Time" and Executive Producer of "Six Feet Under".)

"Sublime."
KXLU

"It's like your funniest punk rock girlfriend decided to write haiku! Beth Lapides rocks!"
GREG BEHRENDT (author of "He's Just Not That Into You", host of the Greg Behrendt Show)

"She's got a mike and she knows how to use it!"
LOS ANGELES TIMES

"Hilarious"
TIME OUT LONDON

"Books by Soft Skull Press look great in terms of production; they're also a lot of fun to actually read. Straddling the genres of humor, self-help and haiku, Beth Lapides' Did I Wake You? is drawing much attention for its inspirational power, even if much of her work seems deeply personal. Punk rock yet approachable, Lapides is a commentator for NPR's All Things Considered, and her writing has been called everything from "quick-shit lit" to "haikuzzi". We could keep going, but it's better if you just buy the book yourself."
TUSCON WEEKLY

"Seriously funny!"
LOS ANGLES MAGAZINE
"The book splits the atoms of your psyche! Hip and hilarious. Beth Lapides is to haiku what a swizzle stick is to a very dry, funny cocktail."
MICHAEL PATRICK KING (Executive Producer/Writer/Director of "Sex and the City", "The Comeback")

"A master comedienne."
LOS ANGELES TIMES

"FOUR STARS (Highest Rating). One of the Top Ten Best Books of 2006. The quintessential example of good things coming in small packages. A highly unique little gem, packed with wisdom, truth, humor, and delicious absurdity. Beth Lapides has a delightfully intelligent comic mind."
CBS RADIO

"Funny, surprising, inspirational, world-conscious, and deeply personal. Beth manages to dust poetry off and plug it in, making it exciting and relevant to the world today!" SATELLITE SISTER - ABC/XM Radio

"Beth Lapides puts the English language on a high-protien diet and it emerges sleeker, skinnier and funnier. In seventeen no-fat syllables, Lapides strikes to the heart of California, celebrity and the curses of our age."
STEPHEN GLASS (author of "The Fabulist")

There are a lot of really entertaining poems here, several which I found really meaningful. I had to admire Lapides's skill at conveying so much, so well, in so few words. It even compelled me to write my own haiku. But I'm not sure they'll ever be seeing the light of day - it's a lot harder than it looks. Rating: 4 out of 5!" TRASHIONISTA.COM

"Beth Lapides is
a haiku genius. I'm ser-
ious, check her out!"
MOON ZAPPA(author of "America The Beautiful")

"But Beth's wit is sharp, sketching showbiz, life, time, love: funny, poignant ... real"
LA CITY BEAT

"Unforgettable."
BOSTON GLOBE
