Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes! My mother used to let me play with the one she used in her office when I was very young.
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Email or twitter.
What's your favorite social network?
Tumblr, though it's probably the one I'm least active on in proportion to how much I enjoy it. It's such a hub of creativity.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
I did a series of videos called "NowThis Is Awesome" when we first went into production that I really liked.
When's the best time to pitch you?
The morning. 9-11A EST.
