Taking over the world, one author at a time...

About Me

I was born in New York City, raised in suburban Connecticut, and educated in Chicago. In a fit of rebellion against a lifetime of frozen toes, a runny nose, and shoveling snow, I ran away to Los Angeles in 2002 to become... happy. (You thought I'd say an actor, didn't you? Fooled ya!) I will always be a New Yorker at heart, but I absolutely adore my sunshiny new outlook on the world.

Fantasy beats reality nine times out of ten, which accounts for my life-long obsession with books, movies, and anything the least bit theatrical. As a literary agent and writer, I own more books than places to put them, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Other interests include music, travel, photography, food (yes, I'm a foodie), and pretty much whatever other adventures my friends like to cook up.

Yes, there's a blog function here. Yes, I will occasionally use it. However, you're more likely to find my words of wisdom over here: http://nephele.livejournal.com/

My Interests

Books, music, movies, theater, travel, cooking, and writing.

Television:

Not much time for TV these days, but I love Lost and Grey's Anatomy, and I tend to catch up with Battlestar Galactica in big chunks on DVD.

Books:

Too many favorites to list them all. A sampling: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, The Eight by Katherine Neville, A Secret History by Donna Tartt, The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, the Harry Potter books by J.K. Rowling, The French Lieutenant's Woman by John Fowles, High Fidelity by Nick Hornby.
