I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

short version: wicked sense of humor. sometimes a dork, always a flirt.

My Interests

anything that is creative genius-film, art, writing etc..

I'd like to meet:



Eighteen year-old Sarris Keaton hasn't spoken a word in three years. For those three years, the mystery behind Sarris' silence and her family's strange and sometimes painful transitions, have kept the small Southern town of Timacy buzzing. And as it usually goes in a small town, rumors fly fast between the whispering know-it-all church hens and are served up at the local grill, The Greasy Spoon. Now Sarris is reaching out and writing letters but to whom?

I am actively seeking an agent/publisher for this manuscript.** If you are interested please contact me. I would love to hear from you. Contact information below or you can also visit Firefly online for more about the story, characters, and see more of Sarris' polaroids.

Quotes of the moment-

"I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet...I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them."-Jack London

"The piano has been drinking, not me, not me." -Tom Waits

"If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don't write, because our culture has no use for it." Anais Nin
