    About this series

    Is this dare the dumbest thing I’ve ever done?

    I’ve been in a funk lately, but you would be too if your fiancé had just dumped you. So, I’m not surprised when my best friends drag me out to dinner. I smell an intervention coming on. However, I am not prepared for their idea to get me out of said funk.

    They want me to use a magic eight ball to make all my decisions until Valentine’s Day. And they’ve dared me. It’s dumb, but we all made a pact in high school not to turn down a dare. Still, this seems a little much. And it gets worse when I realize the promotion I’m up for requires me to work with the stiffest guy at work - Derek. This is going to be a disaster.

    What’s worse is that somewhere between multiple trips to the ER, broken elevators, and dance lessons, I think I might be falling for Derek. We couldn’t actually work, could we?

      The Time I Wrote a Sitcom For Disney

      Feb 24, 2017

      When I recently heard that Raven Symoné would be reprising her role on a spinoff of the sitcom That’s So Raven, I thought it was some kind of mistake. After I went online to verify and found that it was true, I had little choice but to make myself a cup of chai with foamed milk and sit down to calm my beating heart. If you’re a millennial—or even a baby boomer with grown kids—you’ll probably remember Raven, her best friend Chelsea, her obnoxious little brother Cory, and perhaps one or two wacky episodes. I’ll bet you’ll remember more about the show than I do, and I created it. Cue the dreamy
