Greta has been writing creatively since she was about 12 years old. But most of it's been really bad.

Some highlights from my long writing "career": a satire about a librarian trying to brainwash people, a Christmas movie about what Scrooge's life would have been like after he decided to change, an overlong book about dragons that would never get published, a fiction podcast about superheroes (TIGHTS), a novella about a man who's never made a decision for himself in his life (MILTON RECOMMENDS), and another novella about a person who's TOO good at making decisions (MR. CARTWRIGHT AND THE FINAL SOLUTION).

Hi, it's Greta here, now. So, I'm not going to keep writing in third person, it's too pretentious, I'm just not that important.

Recently most of my writing has been about my late-in-life diagnoses and reflecting on all the battles I've fought with myself because of them. Some of that is just therapeutic, and some of it might turn into stand-up if it's not too clunky.

I do have an idea for another season or two (or three) of TIGHTS, and I even started writing another season, but I've been working more on things I could actually potentially perform NOW. I dunno. Maybe...maybe I want to do an hourlong special even though I'm extremely unqualified. Maybe I'll just think about it for five years.

I had a Xanga for like three years and I'm glad the internet has been scrubbed of it. So we'll see how long this lasts.
