I'm JD Rothman. I'm a television writer and producer and lyricist. I sorted crazy blog when my older son was on a college tour with me. The blog was anonymous because I was paranoid that if I use my real name, he would not get into college. Eventually, I was contacted by a publisher who was also a neurotic parent and asked me to turn the blog into the book and forced me to sort of come out of the closet and reveal who I was. The book that I wrote The Neurotic Parent’s Guide to College Admissions deals with the insanity that the college admissions process has become in this country. But it’s not like everywhere. You can move to Australia. I have two boys, 18 and 21. The older is a junior in college and the younger one is graduating high school and going to college and they're both going to be together overlapping for a year at Duke. My husband is in the LA Philharmonic so I get to travel with the bands. The music is one of my hobbies. Traveling is my passion. I'm not a neurotic traveler though I am a neurotic parent.
