Hi. I’m Stefanie Paige Gunning. Native New Yorker. Brooklynite since before it was cool. Wife. Mom. Voracious reader. Movie obsessive. Grown-up theater kid. Fervent supporter of the Oxford comma. Lover of rambling stories and complex humans.

I write about love, friendship, marriage, and motherhood. Surviving an abusive, narcissistic father. Growing older (and more courageous) as a Gen-X woman. Growing wiser, generally. The comforts of pop culture. Weird things I buy on the internet and occasionally regret. My ongoing quest for the perfect haircut, cashmere sweater, slouchy trousers, and cozy home by the sea.

I’m publishing my first novel, Rom-Com Rehab, one chapter a month on Substack!
