I'm such a fangirl when it comes to other writers. I read 250 books a year, and I'm always talking up books by other authors.

The living room is a monument to my impulsive spending habits. I've got more than two hundred DVDs, including cinematic greats such as Monkey Bone, Corkey Romano, and A Night at the Roxbury, leading me to believe not only do I have awful taste in films, but I also have a Chris Kattan fixation. What I don't have is $4000 earing intrest in a money market account.

I tried, it was hard, I quit, the end. Story of my life.

I'm not lazy. I'm simply judicious about excess movement.

Everyone who reads me is someone I'd like to hang out with.

The best thing about being 45 is not taking myself so seriously.

For the record? I have never been her baby. In fact, I reject the notion of coming out of her body. I prefer to believe I was hatched, or perhaps purchased.
