I live in Brooklyn, NY with my fella and our mini-dachshund pup. I work in children's publishing and love stories about adventurous house pets, sensitive robots, and sad super hero(ine)s.

I love all things cute and unusual. I have been making/drawing/sewing/gluing/cutting crafts for as long as I can remember and have more types of scissors, paints, buttons, strings, ribbons, paper...etc. than any person who lives in a small apartment should ever have.

Also, I love getting mail. It makes me ridiculously happy. :)

Anything fun! Currently on frequent iPod rotation: Bonnie Prince Billy, Daniel Johnston, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Neutral Milk Hotel, Magnetic Fields, Joanna Newsom

Anything interesting! Most recently read: Chuck Klosterman, "A Decade of Interesting People and Dangerous Ideas"; "Mortified: Angst Written"; Umberto Eco, "The Undying Flame of Queen Loana"; Clifford Chase, "Winkie"

Unforgettable read: A Prayer for Owen Meany, Portrait of the Artist, All things Salinger, All things Chris Ware (Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth; The Acme Comic Collection), Wonder Boys, Frankenstein, Alan Mendelson: The Boy From Mars
