About Me

What six words would I tell my teen self if I could go back in time?
Worrying delivers neither promise nor prevention.

If you were to throw up your hands in exasperation and yell \"it's the story of my life,\" what would you be talking about?
Wardrobe malfunctions

Besides SMITH, I read stories at:
Brevity, upstreet, damselfly press, Vine Leaves, The Writer's Chronicle, and others...just about anything that strikes my fancy.

In bed I like to read:
Old-fashioned books - meaning, non-electronic format. Although my writing focuses on nonfiction and I primarily read essays, I also love novels and short stories.

My favorite story of all time is:
I've read too much to have a good (read: single) answer to this question.

Right now, I'm reading:
Modern American Memoirs.

The song that encapsulates the soundtrack of my life is?
Brandi Carlile's \"That Wasn't Me.\"

If I could have one person read my writing on SMITH it would be?
Again, I admire too many authors to have a single answer to this question. (read: I'm non-commital and indecisive)
