Welcome to You’re Doing It Wrong. I’m Therese Oneill. I write to entertain you, and to open my veins. 

Annnnnd….I’m so excited to announce my third book, from Simon & Schuster, available for pre-order now!

Unbecoming a Lady: The Forgotten Shrews and Sluts That Shaped America will be out to delight and confound you in March 2024, from Simon & Schuster! Click the tab on the banner above for scrumptious details!

I also wrote a very good book called UNMENTIONABLE: The Victorian Lady’s Guide to Sex, Marriage and Manners for the folks at Little, Brown.

It went over well, (My official title is now “New York Times Bestselling Author Therese Oneill” but you don’t have to address me as such unless I’m wearing my top hat and cape. Which is often.) so I wrote another.

That one is called UNGOVERNABLE: The Victorian Parent’s Guide to Raising Flawless Children.  And it’s a delight. A child poisoning, student-spanking, girls-learning-math-despite-medical-advice DELIGHT.  

Otherwise, if you want to read the (delightful) articles I write for other people, most of which explore the forgotten and peculiar, click above on The Published Goods

If you would like to read the (turgid and peevish) articles I write for myself on my blog (which I admit I haven’t done much since my children got old enough to read them…still there’s some fine history there) click on Editorlessness. They’re a bit turgid, sure, and mostly about how many mistakes I’m making, with a dash of the mistakes I think everyone else is making. Therese gotta Therese. 

Both avenues are good, but only one is uncensored. You can wash in a steady stream of the weird stuff I find at my Facebook Page. Actually, I really recommend my Facebook page. It’s fun. Go on. Go click on that.

If you’d like to contact me with questions or to heap unhinged praise upon me, I have a button for that too.

Thanks for coming.
