My Target Audience

I speak in a very casual tone, but can slip into intellectual banter very quickly. My ideal audience is one who wants to learn something surprising about women's history, romance writing, or laugh along with silly quips.

Why Invite me?

I have an odd breadth of knowledge and my performance background lets me riff easily. I'm a big nerd, so I'm passionate about all my interests, from writing non-binary romances to how many times Rizzio was stabbed in Holyrood castle in front of Mary, Queen of Scots. If I am paired with someone who likes to chat, I will talk forever. If it is about books...you will have to probably cut me off. My goal in life is to not feel regret on missing an opportunity, which means I've done some very silly things, and some slightly risky things. I'm a mom now, so while I can't do some of the bigger adventures I used to, I can find small adventures. I am of a liberal political mindset and I don't have time for people who ignore whole swaths of communities in favor of their own viewpoint. I try to be open, but I also work in the medical field, so I need facts to back up someone's assertions. So I will ask for proof. I've lived in almost all parts of the country, so I know how different things are from Alaska to the Midwest to the South to California.
