Full Name (Including Embarrassing Second Names): Sherilyn Connelly (I have no middle name, and I have the driver’s license to prove it)
Location: San Francisco, CA

What I Do for a Living: I’m a writer and a grad student. In other words, I don’t do anything for a living.
What I Do for Fun: Writing is fun! And I do a show at The Dark Room in San Francisco every Sunday called Bad Movie Night, where we show movies and heckle them, much like Mystery Science Theater 3000. That is also fun.
The Furry Members of My Household Are: Perdita, a black domestic long-haired cat. I have also been known to wear a tail and kitty ears from time to time.
My Favorite Things to Write About Are: In no particular order: Movies, television, obscure pop culture, cats.
My Pet Peeves Are: The word “cheesy” being used to describe anything other than a food that contains cheese; the “dislike” button on YouTube, and the pervasive negativity on the internet overall; being asked what my guilty pleasures are.
My Guilty Pleasures Are: I don’t believe in the concept of the guilty pleasure. All pleasures are valid, and life is too short for guilt, especially when nobody gets hurt. Like what you like! That said, I probably get the most static from other people for my love of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, but I am in no way guilty about it (or defensive, obviously).
How I Deal with Cat Hair: Not-as-frequent-as-necessary brushing, and daily Roomba use.
What I Want to Be When I Grow Up: A writer who actually makes a living.
