Moved to Seattle a couple years ago after ten years in Brooklyn. I couldn't fight the hordes at the Manhattan Trader Joe's for any more discounted bananas.
Been here for about three years, and few regrets. Spoiled by the convenience of Capitol Hill. Seattle, why do you make the living so easy.
Hmm...more about me... Well, I used to be a journalist back in NYC, but got a little maxed out on the whole blogging culture, and it just became a harder field to work in (insert the sad story of journalism/print publishing here). I work as a copywriter now, and I'm also getting my MFA in nonfiction.
Let's see...LIkes: fiction by Amy Hempel, Paul Auster, and Raymond Carver, essays by John Jeremiah Sullivan, humor by David Sedaris and David Rakoff, comedy by Louis CK. by..by...by... Music: Pixies, PJ Harvey, Pavement, Pulp. Bands that begin with the letter P. :)
God, who am I looking for? Well, my dream is to be accidentally locked up in MTV's magical video archives for a weekend watching old Ratt videos. If you have spent a weird minute of your life wondering what it would have been like to be in Huey Lewis' The News, well, perhaps we will get along.
