About

hmm let’s see…

        former failed financial journalist. decent         software developer.          if i had children i’d just call myself a MOTHER, but alas, no spawned processes. soooo…          as this website suggests: i am a random woman         who makes stuff.      

        i don’t do journalism anymore.          i still code bc i quite like it (it massages         a specific, nameless part of my brain);      

        i write compulsively, meaning: i vomit hundreds of thousands          of words of garbage.          screenplays, short stories, etc. i wrote a failed novel a few years ago that still makes me          want to tar and feather myself. well-meaning ppl like to say, Oh, you’ll return to it!!?          no!!! it is salted Gomorrah.      

        i act sometimes. i make films. my first short, FLIRTOLOGIST (July 2024),          was a corrosive cathartic exercise after the failed novel.          bleach for the creative intestine, let’s say.      

        but with the exception of Christian/wife/sister/daughter/mother (God-willing), the idea of anchoring my identity          to one specific pursuit, be it writing, coding, or filmmaking, makes me nauseous          and bizarrely itchy.       so why do anything???? .....

process and compulsion

        otherwise i’m kind of a gym rat.          and i go to mass. and confession.          proud and practicing Roman Catholic. yikes!!!          working out. writing. tinkering on         the computer.          these are things i just do. like gag reflexes.          Because I have to. what else is there???
