About Me

Welcome to Barefoot and Pregnant! My name is Calah Alexander. I’m very effusive and fairly emotionally unstable, so I blog about it, because it’s cheaper than therapy. And because I love writing. I also love Doctor Who, cooking while drinking, Salman Rushdie, crap teen lit, chocolate, the Oxford comma, and this guy

The Ogre

who hates having his picture taken

He also hates romance novels, abuses of MLA citation, the Beat poets, plagiarism, and fish for dinner. He loves James Joyce, a good Scotch, T.S. Eliot, martial arts movies, very rare steaks, Legos, and me. He’s very hairy, very brilliant, and very intimidating until he laughs.
