Writer, storyteller, former comedian, former actress, former PR maven and the founder of a talent agency representing people no one’s ever heard of. I live in New York City.

Writer of Max Holding On, a fictional blog that posts bi-monthly on the website maxholdingon.com. The narrative reveals itself through the blog posts written by Max Holding herself, comedic personal stories and essays about her day-to-day struggles, interspersed with letters she writes to her deceased sister. Modeled after the self-contained, episodic story-telling of a television sit-com, the posts form a loosely connected narrative structure that unfolds over the course of thirteen months.

Max Holding On is modern, female centric story-telling. It contradicts what you  know about chick lit. Max is a single woman in her early 30’s, who isn’t obsessed with men, marriage, sex, babies, career or losing five pounds. This isn’t a “woman’s search for identity in the crazy modern world” this is a story about a human quest for meaning and connection in the face of psychological obstacles. Less Bridget Jones, more Larry David starring in a modern comedic version of Odysseus in the body of a 30 year-old Alicia Silverstone.
