i wear my ponytail like a waterfall

I'm not very good at blogging.

However, they say (and really, who are they?) that in order to succeed in the writerly world, one must have a blog.

So, I blog.

An introductory post of sorts:
  • I am a girl.
  • I am also a comic fan (see: WW, Buffy, A Distant Soil).
  • I like most things that are a) funny b) ironic c) dastardly d) literary.
  • I live in St Paul.
  • Rilo Kiley is, by far, the greatest band in the world.
  • I am interested in lady business and issues (see: feminism, feminist theory).
  • I have a boyfriend.
  • I am generally quite jovial.
  • I am into roller derby.
  • I am a poet.
  • My greatest fear is sharks and shark-related experiences.
  • I was in film school (HIPSTER-SCARE).
  • I am getting my MFA in Creative Writing (hence the blog, woe!).
  • I like people.

I know a bulleted list hardly introduces someone with any kind of warmth or joy, but I think it serves the purposes of this post.

As will this haiku:

Public writing is
treacherous, as is swimming.
Sharks can be disguised.
