About Me

I'm J -- the epitome of a 21st century woman: independent, outgoing, career-driven... I'm a writer (and a damn good one).

But I guess you can say I'm kinda cynical when it comes to actual relationships. You know, the whole one-guy thing. Monogamy, that's what it's called. That's why I make sure to keep my heart out of the equation -- I don't have time for the disappointment and predictable letdowns that come with it. I'm 31 this year, and I've never needed men for more than anything physical. I have no plans to change that, but... I mean... There's this guy I think I'm interested in.

I was dead

I was dead. I could see myself--there, not moving. The darkness in my eyes: blank, no emotion, no care. I could see myself like I was outside of myself. But I couldn't help mys...
