About me

Gender Female
Occupation freelance writer, blogger
Location Richmond, VA, United States
Introduction Just your average Jackson Ward resident who thinks Richmond offers more than enough to keep me occupied and entertained. I smile too much, talk way too much, am far too into music, share my opinion whether it's asked for or not, love to travel, couldn't live without chocolate or books and don't have a TV or a cell phone. I am a nerd.
Interests conversation, music, art, film, books, travel
Favorite Movies Usually whatever documentary I've seen lately. Partial to period dramas, art films and foreign films
Favorite Music local natives, tanlines, real estate, small black, lykke li, the national, violens, love language, paul weller, shout out louds, father john misty, neko case, hurray for the riff raff, interpol, lobo marino, raveonettes, washed out, future islands, yo la tengo, guggenheim grotto, explosions in the sky, ra ra riot, pinback, band of horses, the arcade fire, joy formidable, editors, helio sequence, yndi halda, yuck, andrew bird, british sea power, sigur ros, bloc party, beth orton, beach house, fleet foxes, okkervil river, sufjan stevens, the xx, passion pit, phoenix, fanfarlo. Okay, that's just a fraction of what I like but if you want to know the rest we'll have to talk.
Favorite Books Too many to name. I lean toward non-fiction and classic literature.
