Marianne's Story
Life
Hi, guys,
It's been a long time since 1973. I had two sons in my twenties, Austin, now 25, and Jordan, now 24 and married to Misty Martin last year. Career-wise, I had a short stint with CNN News and also a year as a newspaper columnist here in Tallahassee. Now I write web content and do web design, but no coding, please!! Of all I've done 'til now, however, nothing beats travel -- standing atop the Acropolis, gazing out over the ancient agora and feeling really in awe. One of my trips to Europe led me to the German Kailings, who have been in the valley of Aufenau since the 1100s. The church, built in 1100 is still standing and amazing and I spent an Easter Sunday Mass in German marveling that these buildings still stand. Felt the same about the Cologne Cathedral. I had to be dragged away from Mexico City's Museum of Anthropologie. Bottom line is that the most exciting things in my life, besides my two sons, were things I had to pay for rather than earning money at a 9-5. I'd be glad to hear from anyone who remembers me!

ut has been sidetracked since I picked up two writers and am representing them as their agent. Just keeps getting more interesting. Please let me hear from you!
Update from the last couple of years -- things not as great as when I last wrote. Midlife crisis #8.5 (I've been having them since high school, so, on the good side, I am thankful to have survived this far.) Just a general sense of ickiness and impending doom. Haven't written in a while. Seems someone younger always seems to say it better. Ick! Any collaborators out there? Have not left the USA since 9/11/01. Maybe 'tis just as well, am looking to reconnect with old friends all the way from St. Peter's in Reserve through Reserve Jr. High through Leon Godchaux through UNO, Loyola, FSU, and a semester here and there at Univ. of Pa. and a university in Mexico I don't remember how to spell! Not much going on in Florida's capital city; I miss the whole NOLA and Reed City Mich. area sooooo much. Later, Mary Anne K.
