About Me

i'm erin...
i'm in chicago...
i teach writing at university...
i also have a little graphic design business...
i make books...
i make other things...
i like ellipses...
according to myspace, i don't have many friends (just 1, tom, whose commitment to our relationship is seriously suspect)...
according to my life, i have plenty actual friends...
did i say i like ellipses?...
maybe i just overuse ellipses...
i have mixed feelings about myspace...
i have every intention of updating this site ASAP...
i'm nearly certain i just lied...
oh, and i hate ASAP...
i have a website, also shoddily created and only half done, which i have every intention of spiffing up proper... so i'll post it later.
cheers!
