Linda Doty

St. Louis, Mo.

I'm sickeningly ordinary and just fine with that. Every day, I fight traffic, kids, and laundry. I have a job and a family and dust-bunnies and dreams.

I am a writer. I write because I want to make people laugh. Sometimes, when I get mad, I want to melt people with the death-rays that shoot from my angry, angry eyes. But mostly I just want to make them laugh.

I launched my blog in 2005. Visit me there at http://justlinda.com.

If you're interested in discussing a writing or speaking project, I'm available by email.

Even if you don't have a writing or speaking proposal, you can still contact me to offer to paint my house, contribute to my 401K, or just to tell me I'm pretty.
