Amy K.

About Me

I am a San Francisco-based freelance writer and comedy person. I have an extraordinarily bad attitude. I HAD a parrot named Chet. I own a black Honda Civic. I have a hard time driving a car that doesn't have a stick-shift. I make a pretty good chili. I have had a lifelong passionate crush on Alan Arkin. Of the Marx Brothers, I definitely prefer Harpo. I think Eric Clapton is overrated. I love Coney Island. You might know me as SuperAmyK if you're super yourself.
