I’m Shannon. I live in LA and work in TV. I’m an old soul and the daughter of a sailor. I'm spinnin' yarns and tellin' tales out of school. I’m passionate about journalism, photography, fashion, knitting, whiskey and cycling - but serious about none of them. I hate Twitter. I begrudge Pinterest. I eat way too many peanut butter M&Ms. I’ve tried to start way too many blogs and couldn’t stay focused, so I started to start a blog without a focus. And here I am - hopefully I’l gain a little clarity along the way.

I apologize in advance for my overuse of parentheses and hyphens.
