Motherwear Podcast: Heather Cushman-Dowdee, creator of Hathor the Cowgoddess.

Welcome to another Motherwear Podcast!  My guest for this recording is Heather Cushman-Dowdee, creator of Hathor the Cowgoddess, shown to the left nursing and drawing in her kitchen.

This was a very fun interview.  I got to ask Heather about how she draws, the inspiration for Hathor, and the time she baked breastmilk bread with 150 college students.  Bonus knock-knock joke at the end!

This one is a bit long, but I just couldn't bear to edit it down more.  It was such a fun and interesting conversation.

You can listen right here using the player below, or download it.

Heather's new book, Hathor's Zines, Slings, and Do-it-Yourself Things, (cover to the left) is now available for pre-order!

Be sure to check out a few past posts featuring Hathor:

Can I just say that my two-year-old's new favorite word is "beautiful" and she says it just like in the cartoon. It is such a beautiful thing and makes me smile everytime.

I am a big Hathor fan. I can't get the download link to work for me though and I want to be able to listen to it on my zune. Can anybody fix the link? I did get to hear some of it from the player above and I'm eager to hear the rest. Thanks!
