crazier than shirttails

My name is Summer Anne Burton.

I draw pictures of Every Hall of Famer.

I am the Weekend Editor of cat list behemoth BuzzFeed, and I am a regular contributor to the fine baseball web destination known as NotGraphs.

I sell drawings and prints!

When I am not writing and drawing pictures, I spend time playing softball poorly, trying to perfect my homemade tacos, watching bad TV, internet window shopping for dresses, reading over-ambitious debut novels, defending Kanye West in arguments, and watching my cat try to do things.

If you are interested in paying me to do something interesting like write, draw, or give you vintage soul music suggestions -- or if you have any questions or compliments -- please email me at summer dot burton at gmail dot com. Criticisms are welcome too, I guess, but you should know that I'm a very nice person and my feelings are hurt easily.

I found a small audience for the things that I love to do — writing and drawing. I moved in with my boyfriend and my little apartment feels more like a home every day. I listened pretty much exclusively to R&B made 50 years ago and Kanye West. Animal Planet had a whole show on sloths. Today, I am sick and so we saw “Young Adult” and bought a new router and now we’re just home watching bad TV specials. I’m going to draw some pictures of my friend Molly for a poster and work on this piece of writing I’ve been obsessing over. I feel lucky and grateful and I hope I can take a piece of this feeling into the new year.

I already posted about my favorite written (and drawn) things on the internet.

Unfortunately, I didn’t read enough new books this year to make a list for those. And that’s my resolution! More books.

LOVE! <3 <3 <3 <3
