Who I am:

I'm a writer and mischief-maker living in the small town I grew up next to. Queer, disabled, transgender, and highly likely to trounce you at backgammon. I've got two feline companions whom I think are fairly convinced that the sole reason for my continued existence is because they can't open the fridge by themselves.

I blog daily at this ain't livin', my personal website, and I'm a regular contributor at Tiger Beatdown and Global Comment, as well as many other locations around the Internet.

What I'm reading:

A lot.

What I'm listening to:

Robyn, Janelle Monae, Fallulah, Lady Gaga...

What I'm watching:

Things that tickle my brainmeats.

Recently in the DVD player: True Blood, Man Men, The West Wing, Six Feet Under, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Arrested Development.

What blogs I like:
