The Trouble with Spikol | Make Major Moves | PW Style | Cup o'Joel
Liz Spikol was born in Philadelphia sometime in the 20th century. She started writing about her experience as a person with mental illness in 1999, while employed at Philadelphia Weekly as the paper’s managing editor. Aside from serving as that paper’s web editor, music editor, staff writer, senior editor, executive editor and a host of other random roles that she couldn’t make up her mind about, she has also worked as a Spanish teacher, as a Certified Peer Specialist during Philly’s system-wide transformation and as a communications specialist for a prison reform organization. Currently, she works at the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania and writes book reviews for PW. This blog — named one of the Top 10 Bipolar Blogs of 2007 and 2008 by PsychCentral — is about medications, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, SAD (and many other acronyms), mad pride, Big Pharma, celebrities, hospitals, stigma and the recovery movement. And other stuff.
no! no, really. you just need, uh, better props!! keep it up!
Bravo, L.S., Bravo!! Keep’em coming. I’m looking forward to the live “Trouble with Spikol” for our book discussion soiree!
Reality is hot. Thanks for filling the Rocketboom void. Yes, it’s a fair comparison. There are so few people doing video blogging, that they are obliged at this point to all be compared to each other.
reading this is the most fun i’ve had at 6AM in a long time. thanks for the elegant commentary on today’s society (and your brain).
That was great! I can see it now – a new splash page before entering the blog: “‘The Trouble With Spikol’ is not intended for readers less than 18 years old.”
