About Me

Can a sista get a Book Deal?!

My Interests

Writing, Soap Operas, Movies, Music (going through a big Bossa Nova thing at the moment)

I'd like to meet:

Because this quote is just tooo good to get lost in the sauce:The amazing thing about Angelina Jolie is that women seem to find her as sexy as men do. For some reason the women were also less terrified by her and were the more likely to try to have sex with her if they found her drunk and helpless in a bar.hucksblog.blogspot.com

Music:

EVERYTHING BUT Country, but I love me a little Tim McGraw. As I stated above, Bossa Nova, MADONNA!, Loving the new Timbaland CD by the way, Gwen Stefani, Shaikira, Christina Aguilera. I'm a karoke whore!

Movies:

Anything Audrey Hepburn. Girl Interrupted. And one of the best modern scripts, American Beauty.

Television:

Las Vegas, Soaps. I think I mentioned Soaps already. The Office, My Name Is Earl, Survivor, I admit to loving Charm School, Ron's House, but that's where my TV viewing ends.

Books:

I lied about not reading much. Great Gatsby. Wuethering Heights. Anything Toni Morrison. Letters to a Young Poet. Don't laugh, but Babysitter's Club is the B-O-M-B. My gift to all of my favorite children is Maurice Sendak's "Where The Wild Things Are." And how about the Superfudge Series huh?

Heroes:

Peter Jennings. I miss him so much. Angelina Jolie. I don't care if she's a homewrecking Ho. Audrey Hepburn. She'd be proud having Angelina in her ambassador footsteps. But in terms of those that I can actually talk to on a daily basis, my uncles Conrad and James "Jaime" Mann. I appreciate their priceless advice. It's so important to have mentors both near and far.

I Blame My Mother

I remember while growing up my mother was always caution about to whom I was exposed.  I didn't just play with anybody.  I guess I could say that I had a playdate kind of mother.  And a...

Embrace Illness

First off, I did not win the publishing opportunity in Glimmer Train.  I'm over it.  I think I reflected on it for a day considering the stuff that was getting published.  I'm not chang...
