My Former Life

From the Writers' Room to Your Mailbox
I spent 35 years as a television writer in a high-pressure show business career and those years combined were not as stressful as one night of turning on the news in 2026.
So I decided to do something about it. I created this “Happy Mail” club for people who need the same kind of escape pod that I do.
In addition to “former TV writer” I am a Catholic woman with very bad ADHD. So I am offering envelopes in all of those categories. (I am also the slightest bit snarky, so you may catch a whiff of that, too.)
I hand-paint every watercolor. I dig up old family recipes. I write down the wildest stories from my years in writers' rooms. I find the life hacks, the snarky zingers, the book you haven't heard of yet. And I pack it all into an envelope — themed to you.
Your Mailbox Deserves
