My Interests

Reading, writing, and going to the movies. I'm basically boring.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who wants to give me money.

Music:

Male lead singers in eye make-up!

Movies:

I LOVE horror films. Any poorly made B film will do.

Television:

My favorite TV show is "Supernatural." I'm hoping the ghost who lives in my house will do something to piss me off so I can call those two gorgeous guys over to bitchslap him. Of course I'd have to reward them both personally and...uh...OK, a girl can dream can't she?

Karen Lee Speaks Out

  I'm in awe of illustrators. I think it's because I can't even color inside the lines. And my stick figures never resemble people. Sadly, I can only draw with words. But luckily, we have folks ...

Look Out Broadway!

I admit it. I'm envious of multi-talented people. You know the ones. They sing, dance, act AND write. A quadruple threat. Until I started writing, my only talent was whistling the entire pic...

Okay, so there's no such website as mymessyspace.com (I checked), but if there were, I'm sure my messy office space would be included. Check it out.   Seriously, I couldn't bring myself to show ...
