About Me

Loving, eating, sleeping, dancing, spanking. I do all these things, and then some.I write novels and screenplays. I'm good at what I do, if hard work is what we're talking about. I'm the hardest worker you'll ever meet, and a pretty good dancer. I'll tell it to you real and I'll love you somethin' strong.I'm sugar and spice.I'm better than all that.I like words and the order of things, as well as various states of undress. In Greek, Meli- means honey. This is slightly amusing, for even though I love what bees produce, I am allergic to their stings. Same goes for my reaction to most people.I love any song that has a series of "yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahs" or "fa fa fa fas" in it.I daydream all the time, create conversations with the people I love in my head (some of whom I have never met), talk to strangers, and befriend villains and thieves and liars. I inappropriately and inadvertently exchange laughter and weeping, and find the fine line between pain and joy is becoming more and more blurred as I get older. I love living in Brooklyn- I'm surrounded by interesting people doing interesting things. If I lived anywhere else on the planet I might just shrivel up into a little ball of goo.I love my daughter with both tremendous animal instinct and terrible human intuition, and feel so lucky to have given birth to a being such as her. I take the job of being her Mama more seriously than anything else. She is growing up to be a gifted, thoughtful, provocative human being, and I like that I have a hand in it.I appreciate the diversity of emotions people have in various relationships, and have eaten enough humble pie to know when it comes to friendship and love, nothing, but nothing lasts forever. So I thank my lucky stars, all you beautiful people, that we're doing this whole life thing together (when we get our timing right, of course, and when I draw myself from under my reclusive rock).

My Interests

Samuel Taylor Coleridge.Book publishers.Lovers, fighters, impossibilities, coal under high pressure, and those who have undergone treatment for any of life's ailments.Massage therapists.Spankers. Exceptional spankers.
