CURRENT MISSION

Change the book world for the better, forever.

ABOUT ME

I'm fun, silly, serious, wild, quiet. A fiction writer and performer who values laughter and art and flirtation and traveling. I love guacamole and enthusiasm.

PHILOSOPHY

Kindness above all, ideally alongside a really good fashion sense. I love the big-brained and the daring.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My roommate and I have housed people at our LA home to rave reviews. I've yet to couchsurf (I usually rent apartments on airbnb.com, but think I might finally try it).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have had great, great people at our place in the past.

Interessen

I host Literary Death Match in 47 cities around the world. I run a magazine called Opium. I write books. I edit them. I travel. I read. I perform. I laugh. I drink. I dance. I spew wild ideas.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Doing Literary Death Match in front of 500 people at the Paramount Theatre in Austin is still one of my favorite life moments.

Walking the Great Wall of China makes me think impossible things are possible.

Wandering cities with bright-minded people late at night, tipsy on booze, is always awe-striking to me.
