About Me


It's just me.
I'm sure I'll think of more to write later...a little something by way of an introduction. But it's been a long week and my mind wants to be lazy.
So, a quick who-am-I...
I'm a freelance writer/history geek from upstate New York. "Mom" to a spoiled Pomeranian named Pepper.
What little free time I had has now been consumed with working on a web site for a Broadway star, the amazingly talented and genuinely wonderful Hugh Panaro. It's crazy at times, but I love it and I've met some of the loveliest people as a result.
Oh, and I'm a coffee fiend. When I'm not huddled at this computer, I'm standing in line for quad venti lattes.
You Are 96% NYC
Congratulations, you are truly a New Yorker. You've seen it all, and you're more than a little cynical. How NYC Are You?
You Are a Fortune Cookie
You're a rather normal person, except that you have extraordinary luck in life.
People want to be around you (even when they're a little sick of you), in hopes of being lucky too! What Kind of Cookie Are You?
You Are an Espresso
At your best, you are: straight shooting, ambitious, and energetic
At your worst, you are: anxious and high strung
You drink coffee when: anytime you're not sleeping
Your caffeine addiction level: high What Kind of Coffee Are You?

My Interests

Can't think of anyone...I've met the people I want to. Well, OK...I wouldn't mind meeting David Bowie again.

Phantom - Two Years Later

It was two years ago today that, after essentially half a lifetime of waiting, I finally saw "The Phantom of the Opera" live on Broadway. On some of the "phan" sites, they'd call it my "Phanniversary...
