you spend the day writing resumes, so to make yourself feel better you do this.

SUMMARY

I’m a current bench sitter, aching to get into the game, because I got hoop dreams, Coach.  I got them real bad.

I learned that I have to grab your attention here with something I can provide for your company, so how about doughnuts?  Or maybe excellent small talk?  I can also crack wise at a water cooler like no other, and I do a mean Cupid Shuffle.  Granted, he tells you what to do, but there aren’t many people who can down-down-down-do-ya-thing like me.

EXPERIENCE

Blogger, online                                                                                                                            2011
Managing Editor, frequent contributor

·      Wrote daily posts on awkward or funny situations, and even if not, then attempt to find it.  It started because I got caught in an elevator door once, and I never looked back (at the door or the people in that elevator who we worried for my life).
·      Designed entire blog layout from backgrounds, fonts, colors, and I used some coding even, because I’m fancy.  I actually won an award once for website design.  I don’t want to brag, but yeah, it was 10th place out of the top 20. So I’m sort of average when it comes to these things.  I'm at least in the top half of the average.

Fanfiction, online                                                                                                                        2003
Volunteer Contributor/Reviewer
·    Wrote 9 stories with varying levels of success, the most reviews I have is 60+, while the least is 10.  But all are positive!
·    The longest story I have to date is at least 100,000+ words, which, for me, is a feat.
·    Critically read and wrote reviews to fellow writers online, suggesting ways in which to improve their story from Mary Sue demons or perhaps applauding them on how excellent and adorable they live out these characters lives.

Jane Austen Fantatic, life                                                                                                            2001
Volunteer participant, essay writer, vocal defender
·      I first saw the Laurence Olivier and Greer Garson version of Pride and Prejudice when I was in the fifth grade, which made me read The Great Illustrated Classics version that year.  It was only later on, that I could read the real thing and fully embrace it.
·      I once took a Jane Austen class, and I dominated discussion over Mansfield Park.  That had to be the best day of my life.
·      I touched her desk in Chawton. Okay, so there was a Plexiglas, but I was already so close, I couldn’t let that opportunity pass.
