I read comics and I write comics and I was doing both before they were chic.
I listen to The Pogues, Pixies, and much of the Atlantic Rhythm and Blues 50s-69 scene. And, if you don't know what I'm talking about, yes, I'm judging you.
I majored in English, got a job as a secretary, and I subsequently spend the vast majority my days tormenting people with a red pen and a series of underlines and squiggles because I feel under appreciated and creatively impotent.
