I lived in and around New York City for 8 years.

And Now I Don't. But I still like to visit. A LOT.

Now I live in the Washington, D.C. metro area. I moved for love, which I think is a noble and pleasurable cause. A major outcome of the move is that now I can write books instead of chronically collecting material. I also cook on occasion, rather than eating pizza from Famous Original Ray's every night. This makes me feel like I'm finally approaching adulthood in my 33rd year.

I completed a draft of my first novel, a story about a single woman on the cusp of her 30s. She lives in New York City, works for a beast of a boss and chases men with the energy of a feral cat. While the premise sounds like typical chick lit, I promise you'll come away saying, "I laughed, I cried; it became a part of me. I smell a New York Times bestseller. Katie Morton is a noveling force!" Or something.
