I'm using this post as an opportunity to show you more of my real, grown up, not-taken-with-my-phone headshots. Fancy, no?!
Dear Sarah,
I've been reading your blog for a long time and while I really like the Mini Travel Guides and True Stories, I miss when you used to write more of your own stuff and talked more about your own life. I know you said you feel uncomfortable getting too personal, but what if readers sent in questions and then you answered them quick like. Just 25 words for each question or something? I'm sure I'm not the only one who's nosy!
Gosh! As previously discussed, I live in fear of oversharing and/or boring you guys with the day-to-day mundanities of my life. (Most days go like this: "Worked on computer for hours + ate fake chicken patty with honey mustard + ran some errands." Riveting they're not!) But! I'm game if you are.
So, If you've got questions you'd like to ask me - about myself, about Yes and Yes, about my work, about my affinity for anthropomorphism - leave them in the comments or email me at sarah (at) yesandyes (dot) org. I'll assemble them into a post and try to answer each question in 25 words or less. Here's hoping I can rise to the challenge of being non-boring and non-annoying while talking about myself at length.
I'll start! How'd you meet your boyfriend?
