Have you ever wondered what your favorite authors carry around in their bags?
Well, this new segment on my blog will answer that question.
Here’s what Debra Anastasia carries in her purse.
Debra Anastasia revealed the contents of her purse for all to see and explained why she carries them.
Wallet: Has a book of stamps, all the necessary documents like my rabies shot records and whatnot.
List: Four crumpled up lists of things to buy at the store, because in my mind there is just sheer white noise and I’m very susceptible to store displays and shiny things. I need a guideline.
ID Tag: a crappy picture of me on a sparkly clip. I don’t even need it anymore.
Little tissues. For the noses of my people.
Mints: For when my mouth tastes like ass.
Two glasses wipes. For glasses.
Two pairs of reading glasses. For the wipes.
Blister block stick. That’s sexy.
A maxi pad with a fucking face on it. Jesus. 
My best bro bracelet from Helena Hunting. Like Chandler and Joey? She’s Joey and I’m Chandler. She is always wearing hers and mine is always close, but not necessarily on. I’m sort of like a wild animal and I like to be unadorned. But then, when I have to be fancy I have my bracelet. This is too much information. I love my bro-celet. And my bro. Helena.
Two lips balms that ironically, Helena made for me. One from Fire Down Below and one from Poughkeepsie. They taste amazing so I snuck two into my bag at my last signing.
One single peanut (Always have to have a nut in my sack I guess.)
Random store bonus rewards cards -all with a broken hole punch from falling off my keys.
Two barrettes. See the bro-celet description.
One lipstick, Smashbox Infrared. This color is bad ass. And I wear it if I forget to wear my bra. Draws attention away from the nipples.
2 safety pins from my costume design months earlier this year.
1 dehydrated French fry tip.
3.2 pounds of loose change at the bottom.
Business cards.
1 purse hanger fancy thing for when you don’t want to put your adorable bag on the floor.
1 blue Sharpie
My ginormous iMattress (iPhone 6 plus) with a glittery case. I just got this after using the living shit out of my 4s.
Look at that! Half a stick of lifesavers. For when my meds give me dry mouth and I’m on the road and can’t drink water because we will have to take too many pee breaks.
Prescription: For toothpaste from the kids’ doc. I need to get that filled.
I knew you’d find one of those adorable maxi pads in there. 🙂
Thank you Debra for letting your fans/readers into your purse. I knew the contents of your purse would be interesting.
