Likes: caffeine, irony, the Internet, magazines, digressions, collecting anything with a typewriter on it, Comcast on demand, Sarah Silverman, the ‘90s

Dislikes: stalkers, people who don’t like to dance, hangovers, Ann Coulter, loud children, math, being the first person at a party

Trish has written about queers and entertainment for publications such as Time Out Chicago, The Village Voice, Planet Out, Jane and Jane, and Punk Planet. She currently writes the music column, SoundCheck, for AfterEllen.com and is one of the Hook-up bloggers on Ourchart.com. In 2007, she was the co-creator and curator of Queer Fest Midwest, and was the co-founder and publisher of the now defunct, chillmag.com. She works well with computers because her handwriting sucks.

jamie murnane

Likes: diet coke, dance parties, stella the pug, iced coffee, netflix, being connected to the world via MySpace, free nights and weekends, drinking cold beer on warm nights with hot friends, not having a car, new magazine smell

Dislikes: rudeness, heckling at concerts, showing too much cleavage, creepsters, television commercials

Jamie is totally copying Trish by also being one of the curators of Queer Fest Midwest and co-founding the now-defunct chillmag.com. She writes about random things for a bunch of random publications, but mostly just likes to have written or talk about writing. Except for blogs. That’s different.
