Favorite Bit of Writing Advice: In The Right to Write, Julia Cameron discusses the importance of writing without judgment.  Even writing badly is better than not writing at all, and that's something I tell myself every time I sit down to write.

Random Info About Me: I am a die-hard fan of Survivor and never miss an episode.  I take great pleasure in using things up (like a box of Kleenex or a bottle of olive oil), and then bringing out the replacement item that I already have on hand.  I am good about writing people back.  I have a great memory for names and faces, but I am terrible at remembering jokes and always screw up the punch line.  I actually detest the phrase "TMI," mainly because I've heard it one too many times in my life.

TMI Synopsis: Friends call Becca the Overshare Queen, but her tendency for TMI never seemed like a problem to her until she blabs about her sweet band-geek boyfriend's sloppy kisses—and gets dumped! Realizing it may be better to resist the temptation to overshare face-to-face, Becca decides to blog anonymously about everything instead. On her blog, Too Much Information, Becca unleashes her alter ego, Bella. Bella tells it like it is... though perhaps with a bit more more drama. After all, no one's going to read it, right?
