Brief Author Bio: I'm Just starting my fourth year(!!) teaching special ed in the NYC Dept. of Ed's citywide all special ed district. I've just changed populations to work with kids with autism. I teach and live in Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn. I've got one bird, Benjamin Coffin the Bird (Benny) who alternately amuses and aggravates me. LOL. In my free time I read, I blog, I attend theatre productions (on- and off-Broadway, musical and non-musical), and I just chill in my apartment when I'm not "playing" in Manhattan. :) |

Synopsis: Drama, a novel
Semi-autobiographical novel about an experience I've had and am currently having. See also: my current craptastic life.
Excerpt: Drama, a novel
Due to the nature of this work - and the fact that I'm basically using this novel as self-therapy, I'm not posting an excerpt because I'm not changing the names or anything about it, and don't want stuff spread all over the internet. Sorry.
