About J.D....

I'm a 40-year-old spinster with 6 rescued cats. I love to travel (anywhere), read (anything), do art and crafts (paper arts, sewing, lots more), and cook/eat international food.

I live in world-famous Las Vegas, Nevada, but I'm originally from the state of Alabama and I lived in the Washington, D.C. area for many years. I work as a copyright and trademark lawyer, although I like to believe that my true calling is as a novelist or a screenwriter... I have visited France, Switzerland, England, Jamaica, Mexico, Singapore, Malta, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Romania, Sweden, Bolivia, and most recently Germany (Stuttgart and Munchen), which isn't nearly enough of the world yet! I'm also very interested in international foodways and cuisine--not only the different dishes people eat across the world, but the basic ingredients they use and the agricultural and production methods associated with those ingredients. But I also like fashion and indie music so I promise I'm not as much of a geek as I sound like!

I enjoy writing to female snail-mail penfriends, so let me know if you might be interested in further correspondence. I love all kinds of postcards, but especially ad-cards/freecards--I know that's not very common, but I think they're really interesting little slices of culture and of colloquial language. I like cards that are printed in your language/alphabet if you'll write the English translation for me.
