I wrote an article for the Blue Horizon newsletter in the spring. The article received some excellent response. So I tweaked it and submitted it to Agape. Agape is the National OTO newsletter.
This quarter, my article is being published.
Agape Vol 7, Iss 4, page 11.

A – Accent: An excellent place to start. I’ve done my damndest to make my accent, “Educated American with no localisms.” As I’ve gotten older, more of my New York parents accents have snuck in. I also know that my accent will drift depending on my mood and intent. If I’m punchy and happy around people I’m comfortable with, I may launch into one of many accents I know. When uncomfortable around complete strangers I have a convincing British accent. (That sucks only when tipsy around tiggr93) Finally, is the Russian accent. Okay folks here’s the secret. The russian accent really only comes out when I’m trying to be forward but fighting against my own self confidence. It’s a humourous cover 😉 There… now you know the secrets.
B – Breakfast Item: A bowl of Lucky Charms with Soy milk. They really are magickally delicious

I spent 15 years in the state of Eastern Pennsylvania growing up and 15 years in the state of Western Pennsylvania discovering how I really wasn’t a grown up yet. So… Pennsylvania.
