ts sad that when asked what people do, almost everyone answers with their JOB! i ride bikes and train brazilian jiu jitsu
Okay okay. Point taken. I'm a writer. I'm a ****ing experimental writer (I wrote my Master's thesis on Spam).
I blog here. That's what I effing do!
I got "here" (to what I do) by chance, as we all do a little bit, I'm sure. I majored in Spanish (B.A., 1999) then moved to Costa Rica for 4 years where I worked as a bookie in one of the world's largest sportsbooks (my ex-boss is locked up in a Federal Penitentary near St. Louis somewhere) (and yes, I'm working on a memoir). After that, I applied to MFA programs and was accepted. Now I teach.
