What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland

“You have a Midland accent” is just another way of saying “you don’t have an accent.” You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or […]

Everyone has them…c’mon, you know you do.
Here are a few of mine in no particular order:
• Caffeine while I write - I don’t know why, but my muse just luvs the stuff!

• Bookstores - I love to browse the aisles, and if I do so with a coffee in hand, […]

I finally created a MySpace account: http://www.myspace.com/patrice_michelle.
Whew, that place is addictive. You could spend HOURS pretty-ing up your “space”…er, which I did tonight. I think I have it the way I want it…until I decide to update the background. ;) I think I might’ve been a graphic designer in another […]

I went into the cell phone place to see about upgrading my cell. Came out with this baby…

I’m back from RT…all while lugging 130 lbs of luggage to and from the airport! At least I got my strength training work out in, but…never will I bring so much luggage again! LOL!
As always RT was a blast! Not only was it a “fantastic” setting (who wouldn’t love Daytona??!), there were a ton […]

Every career has it’s upsides and the downsides. Being a writer is no different…
The upside is… you’re very observant, constantly listening. The downside is…you don’t always “hear” because you’re forming story ideas in your head once your muse kicks in.
