Interests
General
I Did (But I Wouldn't Now) I love reading chick lit, teen lit, any-kind-of-lit books, writing, watching movies, shopping (that's a sport right?), playing tennis and drinking with friends. Somehow, though, I don't think they all mix well together. Don't try Drunk Tennis. It's not good for you. Or Drunk Shopping for that matter. You'll end up buying a lot of spandex for no good reason. But then again, is there ever a good reason to buy spandex?Music
Favs are Franz Ferdinand, Death Cab for Cutie, the Killers, Cake, and WeezerMovies
Wes Anderson movies! The Royal Tennenbaums has to be my favorite. Nearly all Coen Brothers movies, although my favorite is The Big Lebowski.Television
Footballers Wives! I'm an anglophile, admittedly, and this is the best soap on television. Even if it is on BBC America.Books
Mine of course! But I've got lots of favorites. I love anything by David Sedaris and Augusten Burroughs. Other favorite authors: Merrill Markoe, Laurie Notaro, and Laura Zigman.Heroes

About me:
..I'm a writer. I've written five books ("I Do (But I Don't)," "Pink Slip Party," "Dixieland Sushi," "I Did (But I Wouldn't Now)," and my latest, "Wuthering High," the first in the Bard Academy series.
Here's what people are saying about Wuthering High:
"Wuthering High is a quick-paced novel with a heroine teen girls will easily relate to....Having read some of Cara Lockwood's earlier titles, I was delighted to review Wuthering High. She infuses this book with sharp wit, solid plot and relatable characters and sets the stage for a series that should be a lot of fun. Fun, fantastic and completely unforgettable!"
--In the Library Reviews
"Cara Lockwood has written a charming fantasy that sends important messages to teens who will understand them because Miranda, using asides, explains them to herself. This reviewer would love to see a sequel to WUTHERING HIGH."
--Harriet Klausner

Who I'd like to meet:

on the streets of Teheran.
This was Neda - please remember her.
