hello

I'm Erin, and this is a spot where I gather all the scattered bits I add to the internet.

I take pictures, make things, drink beer, and cuss about songs. Sometimes I write in long form; more often I write in short form (and in lower case). I appreciate semicolons and Sleater-Kinney more than most things in life, and I think the word "torridly" is among the most beautiful in this language.

I live in Chicago, which I love dearly, although I miss certain particularities of the American South, where I originate. I am easily amused. I try not to be a jerk. There are some things online that I am proud to have done: contributing to Pictory, Pinch, and Gapers Block.

The background photo of me was taken by nickd; the current design of this site is originally by Naz Hamid.

I've been known to appreciate a good every now and again.
