• Co-producer of Lit Crawl Chicago , most recently held in September 2017.
• Collects books and can’t stop won’t stop. Or so says the Chicago Tribune.
• Gave this weird talk at Pecha Kucha that strangers around the world seemed to like.
• Will go to great lengths for a good meal.
• Formerly a performer/producer with WRITE CLUB, a live, literary essay competition in several U.S. cities. Occasional playwright.
• Has kept a web site since 1996, when she and her friend Bethany created pages on Geocities.
