Miss Lorrie .."to navigate the bloodshot, broken bone oceans of an interior life made manifest in fits and starts as I shambled east..." - holly anderson Posted at 12:59 AM Dec 17 view more
About me: short person. anxiety queen. truth seeker. misanthropic grumbler. occasionally sparkling and delightful.
host/producer/lifelong freeform rock'n'roll radio bitch = because i play records on both the revolutionary CKUT 90.3 FM in Montreal (www.ckut.ca), and on the world-wide underground waves of www.Radio23.org.
you should download the podcasts or tune in sometime..
Who I'd like to meet: good people. real people. HONEST people. patience personified. those who allow for learning curves to take hold. empaths. writing/ editing coaches who are willing and able to kick my crotch into its highest gear until finally - finally! - i do the damn work and deliver on all the fictionalized non-fiction and absurdity/ comedy/ blarney/ abuse that's strangling my insides..
Thanks for your comment and strong words! I absolutely agree--women in this biz need to be fierce and stand together. Virtual beginnings, is a beginning...
Thanx for your comment! Glad you liked our town (we are a little fed up with living here) Yep, life is quiet and veeery slow here, so we try to make some loud noise to annoy our neighbours.
aw... thx... I refused to make a playlist for brian and just gave him a playlist of what I played that day a year ago. Played Movin' out by Billy Joel and taht was that :) would he still reject me based on the abbey road cut? i think so.
