Each year, more than 500 of Dallas’ most influential women gather together to support Dallas County’s most vulnerable children by bring in a ‘chick lit’ author to entertain and raise awareness for the cause at the Chick Lit Luncheon, which will be held on April 29,
2010 at Brook Hollow Golf Club.

This year’s featured author, Jen Lancaster, comes to us
from Chicago, and brings her witty and sassy rhetoric to the ladies of Dallas. The Chick
Lit Luncheon is the major fundraising event that benefits Community Partners of Dallas.

Jen Lancaster began her literary career as a blogger, detailing a fall from designer
handbags and spa visits to the unemployment line on www.jennslyvania.com. Her acerbic wit quickly won the blog a massive following, and Bitter is the New Black, Lancaster’s first memoir, was born. Next came Bright Lights, Big Ass, where readers shared the
drama of an egotistical, smart-mouthed Republican adjusting to life in the big city.

Lancaster then detailed her personal battle of the bulge (for health reasons) in Such a
Pretty Fat. Pretty in Plaid is the prelude to all of these hysterical tomes and the perfect read for anyone who has ever found themselves defending the merits of neon tights or decided that blue eyeliner and pastel eye shadow are a winning combination.
