Hello, my name is Liz Belsky. I live in New York City, where I'm studying TV/Radio and attempting to do something cool with my life. This is my blog where I sometimes post musings about ladies' issues, general interest ramblings, and scholarly analyses of comedy and TV in general, but more frequently I post photos of my fingernails and of my face.

If you want to get in touch with me for whatever reason, you can email me at eabelsky@gmail.com.

My Twitter is @lizbelsky and so is my Instagram handle.

Ask me anything

Anonymous asked: what are your favorite non-fiction books?

Anything by Matt Taibbi, Ben Mezrich, Sarah Vowell, Mary Roach, Dominic Streatfield, Andrew Ross Sorkin, etc. Dave Cullen’s Columbine is really good. On the memoir/humor side… David Sedaris, of course, and Augusten Burroughs (his essay collections are much better than Running with Scissors/Dry, IMO) and also pretty much every memoir written by a comedian/funny person. Patton Oswalt, Michael Ian Black, Moshe Kasher, and Chris Gethard have all written really good ones. And I recently read Frank Rich’s autobiography Ghost Light and really loved it, but that’s just me talking as a theatre nerd.
