Confessions of a Third-Rate Goddess: Traipsing through a World Gone Weird (ePub)

Kathy Biehl has spent some 30 years being paid to eat, drink, and type up her observations. Her career began in Houston and coincided with its culinary scene rising to national prominence; her base of operations expanded to New York City and, eventually, the entire country.

For more than a decade she reviewed restaurants for The Houston Business Journal, Houston Press, Time Out New York (including its first dining guide), and a slew of online directories and guides. She also contributed cover stories to Houston's dining magazine My Table, reported on wine for Publix Grape and wrote long-running food news columns for the doctor's travel and leisure magazine Diversion and the legal research journal LLRX.com. She is the editrix and primary writer of the zine Ladies' Fetish & Taboo Society Compendium of Urban Anthropology and its companion blogs.

Her food writing has won awards from the Association of Food Journalists and Houston Press Club, as well as the title "Pseudo Food Xpert," bestowed by a review subject she'd caught impersonating a competitor. Informal honors include triggering the largest week of business a cafe had had in decades of operation and serving as litigation evidence, after a review tipped off a prominent chef that a former employee had walked off with his signature dishes.

Kathy is also an attorney and primary author of The Lawyer's Guide to Internet Research (Scarecrow Press, 2000); a stage and film actress best known for the dowager role in the first-ever revival of the Marx Brothers' earliest Broadway musical I'll Say She Is; and a professional astrologer whose forecasts appear at EmpowermentUnlimited.net, OMTimes.com and the Professional Aquarian YouTube channel.
