Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

I used to beg to type up letters for an aunt in the Caribbean. A 10 page short story in middle school changed the way I felt about them.

What's your favorite social network?

Garbage fire that it is, Twitter can only be pried away from my cold, dead hands.

Who do you wish followed you?

Helen Rosner

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

I wrote a few articles, namely a music review for a local student's single.

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

Food: That I was a food critic. Tech: That I'm not a tech writer.
