Hi, I’m Monique, or Mo for short, and I’m the author of Mo Livin’ Large. People have told me I’m a story teller, an auditor, a writer and that I have a gift with words. This all stems from telling people stories about my life, and the lives of my family and friends. They’re the type of stories that result in people telling me, “You need to write this down.” And so one day, I started to write them down and thus, my blog was born.

My blog isn’t all about stories from my life, however. I have a tendency to discuss what interests me such as books, recipes, music, or movies. I may share links to websites or other blogs I think may be of interest. Sometimes I cater to plus-size women with shopping sites they may not have discovered yet. But more often than not, I write about things my girlfriends and I have discussed at book club, or when a certain personal theme seems to be trending on Facebook, or my reaction to something I read online or in a magazine.

So grab a cup of tea or coffee (or if you’re reading my dating posts, a glass of wine or margarita always works), sit down, and have a good read.
