Introduction	I am many things. A wife and mother. A writer. A native and lover of Florida. I am attempting to finish my first novel, though that goal is often impeded by the many other distractions in my life (children, work, Gossip Girl). You can follow my progress on this blog and read about how I'm handling the daily juggling act that is my life.
Interests	reading and writing (obviously), cooking, drinking (good) wine and beer, politics (especially healthcare and tax reform), feminism, fashion, music, art, film
Favorite Movies	anything by John Hughes, sappy romantic movies (my favs being The Notebook and Ever After), can't resist a romantic comedy (however trite), horror movies (weird after all the romantic stuff I know)
Favorite Music	Linkin Park and Coldplay when I'm pissy, Michael Buble and Jamie Cullum when I'm happy, Justin Timberlake and Timbaland when I want something with a great beat, John Mayer and Ingrid Michaelson when I want great lyrics, Beethoven when I want to clear my head
Favorite Books	Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, Atonement by Ian McEwan, The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, Wideacre by Philipa Gregory, Paradise by Judith McNaught (to name a few)
