Sometimes I write stuff.
Articles, reviews, humor pieces, serious pieces, scripts, fiction, ad copy, obituaries, sketches - I’ve even graffitied a few bridges.
Here’s a picture of me, not writing, which is a huge part of my writing process.
Not really, I’m afraid of heights. I’ve written for the Chicago Tribune, Newsweek, Writer’s Digest, Humor Press and various and sundry other publications, websites, and production companies.

My book, Stay at Home Actress, (click to see the cover, download the first two chapters for free, and pre-order the e-book) is launching February 14th, 2027. Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to release a romantic comedy—Stay at Home Actress is a second-chance love story full of grounded characters that feel like family. Be sure to sign up for my email list so you never miss updates on book parties and when I release more free chapters.
