Stand-up comics, reading, writing, scintillating conversations, baseball, volleyball, tennis, football, the Tennessee Vols, the Oakland Raiders, the Los Angeles Dodgers, margarita and cheese dip therapy (trust me...it's cheaper than any shrink and twice as satisfying)
Music
80s pop, 80s hair bands, chicks who rock, classical/instrumentals (when I'm writing), dance (especially when I'm cleaning the house), and the new wave of girl-power country (think JoDee Messina's "My Give a Damn's Busted" or Elizabeth Cook's "It Takes Balls to be a Woman")
Movies
80s classics (Breakfast Club, Say Anything, Flashdance, Ghostbusters, The Lost Boys, etc.--they just make me feel good), girl power movies (Shirley Valentine, Under the Tuscan Sun, The Craft, Foxfire, Thelma & Louise, Chicago, the Lara Crofts, etc.), and quirky movies that change the way we think about how to tell a tale (Stranger than Fiction, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Pulp Fiction, etc.)
Television
Supernatural, Lost, The Closer, Sex and the City (RIP), The Office, The Big Bang Theory, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Absolutely Fabulous (RIP), Wonderfalls (RIP), the new Bionic Woman (although why they kept her named Jamie is beyond me when they change EVERYTHING else!), Adventures of Briscoe County Jr (RIP), True Calling (RIP), My So-Called Life (RIP) & Six Feet Under (RIP)
Books
(Besides mine? :-) WAY too many to name, fave authors: Penny Dawn, Misty Simon, Dana Marton, Natalie Damschroder, Megan Hart, Janet Evanovich, Shannon Hollis, Alesia Holliday, Carrie Fisher, Jennifer Crusie, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Jennifer Weiner, Michael Lee West, Pat White, Katherine Ivy, Heidi Ruby Miller, Lori Foster, Maria V. Snyder, KJ Howe, Karl Fieldhouse, Vicky Burkholder, Jason Jack Miller, Stephanie Bond, Linda Curnyn
Heroes
All of the above authors, people who rise above self-doubt, people who defeat terminal disease, people who live "The Secret," and groundbreaking chicks who find their own way: Dolly Parton, Cher, Tina Turner, Sheryl Crow, Angelina Jolie, Barbara Stanwyck, etc.

About me: I love the funny things in life. I'm a comedy writer who writes books and screenplays about all the ups and downs of life, love, and whatever passes for happily ever after these days.
Plain and simple, I'm a saucy Southern woman who wants her stories to sex you up and crack you up.
Stop by my website at ReadJackiKing.com to put in your $.02 on that and other topics and to not only get my current releases, but my coming attractions, as well.
Who I'd like to meet: Readers, writers, other artists, and fans of this thing called life.
