TV writer Kristin Newman on her memoir 'What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding'

Just as her friends were pairing off to get married and have babies, Kristin Newman took off to travel the world alone. Looking for an escape from her job as a television writer in L.A., she set off in search of adventure and found it. 

In her debut book, the memoir "What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding," Newman recounts her exciting solo trips to exotic locales, dalliances with foreign men, and the work she did in between as a writer on shows like "That '70s Show" and "How I Met Your Mother."
