Born and raised in Nevada, now living and loving it in the east, writing, reading voraciously, and sometimes teaching, in a small town in upstate New York, traveling whenever I can.
Favorite things: Books, books, books! Ethnic food, good movies, bad movies, art museums, the NYT crossword, breakfast made by someone else, laughs with my friends, as little exercise as humanly possible, foreign places, ruins without crowds, being under a warm ocean surrounded by fish that don't care if I'm there...
Least favorite things: Laundry, a rocky plane ride, an unkind word delivered on purpose
Next trip: Bhutan!!!
