me. oh yes, unfortunately that is me, with the lovely Donita Sparks of L7.

don't ask me why i have this horrible photo to represent me. it's the only thing i have in the computer.

hmm. a bit more personal stuff: i grew up in Chicago but currently reside in the lovely Northwestern suburbs (gag). I work at a video store and go to college, where I will hopefully get a degree in film. Then hopefully I can go on to some other school and get a better degree in film. THEN maybe i can go to my dream school, the Eastman House School of Film Preservation, where I can learn to preserve silent films and early talkies. After that I hope to make my own silent movies and own a theatre that will play only silent films. I also plan on writing Charles Rogers' biography someday. Remember these are just dreams we are talking about. hmm, i have brothers and sisters, and a mom and dad, and all those other family member-type people. I am currently not single, and very happy about that. no stalkers, please.
the zines are something i've been doing since i was a wee tyke (about 5th grade). it's just my way of expressing myself and getting my voice heard, i guess.  my best friend Mmy got into the scene, and years later, a few other friends have joined the 'family business'. i haven't been able to get anything out recently, to my dismay, but the internet seems to be a good way to bother more people.
