As an aspiring writer, I relocated to New York from my small hometown in North Carolina (so small, a pin would drop and the police would show up at your door) to pursue a hopefully lucrative in career in some form of writing. I was shooting for the screen or stage, but, as of now, I'd be lucky to land a job copy-editing the Nutrition Fact label on generic brand Cheerios.
So far, I've managed to adopt a terminally ill kitten, break my arm and rack up up a credit card debt of more than I would like to admit. (all on Metrocards and housewares, I swear!)
I majored in Communication Studies and Dramatic Art at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. What did that get me? Twenty thousdand dollars of student loan debt and a remarkable ability to analyze the narrative structure of Deep Throat and its effect on the Women's Movement.
My goal in life is to be able to afford cable, internet and organic, shade-grown coffee while living in New York City. I also hope to buy a bitchin' set of rollerblades so that I can put another notch in the emergency-room bedpost.
Why put all your eggs in one basket when you can save them, let them rot, and then throw them at people you don't like?
