Writing in Real Life. Tales from a struggling writer, Detroit chick, and mother. On Privacy Annoying Little Dogs. A friend posted this status update a few weeks ago: Is it weird to be on someone's Facebook page when they walk up? In fact, shouldn't we be flattered that they're thinking of us at all? Thinking of someone is one thing. Looking for all their info is stalking them from afar. Or finds out who you are and starts to harass you? But who are the cranks and weirdos who are watching us unseen? So mu...

Writing in Real Life. Tales from a struggling writer, Detroit chick, and mother. The Next Big Thing. I was tagged by poet, novelist, and Harlem Renaissance scholar Hans Ostrom to participate in a self interview / game called "The Next Big Thing."
