Hold tight and don't drink anything, you have been warned:

1) I write quite a bit and have been offered a publishing contract, sadly for the Erotica. Not the "right" contract, so I'm holding out for a better offer.

2) My writing has been published in college English textbooks. If pressed, I will post the piece(s) to my LJ for friends-only.

3) No one is more surprised than me that I'm married. To a Navy man. On Whidbey Island. (but I digress...)

4) I had a job offer in NYC for six figures that I turned down to remain in Washington state. (Caveat: it would have required working for my father, so chances are either or both of us would have been dead by now.)

5) I used to work for Dan Quayle and had a WildC.A.T.S. trading card of him in my pocket the entire time. (The one where he's being exorcised by a stripper named Voodoo)

6) I have ties to both the Irish and Greek Mafia.

So what have we learned from this? Don't mess with Trista or she'll: a) write you into a story, thereby eviscerating you in fiction, b) turn her Mafia friends onto you or c) sic Mr. Potato(e)-head on you.
