OOVY dot NET is the website of writer/journalist Evie Nagy. Originally from San Diego, she is now based in New York City, arriving via layovers in New Jersey, Boston, and Istanbul, Turkey. Evie is the Associate Editor for Special Features at Billboard Magazine, and has contributed news, reviews and features to Billboard / Billboard.com , Paste, Bust, Skope, ARTnews, GO Magazine, EDGE, The Jersey Journal, and others. She is also the author of the blog Awesomed By Comics and hosts the Awesomed By Comics Podcast with her husband, radio anchor and producer Aaron McQuade. With a background in education, she has written academic speeches, program proposals, marketing copy and textbook modifications for English Language Learners. On the side, she's a live and studio vocalist who was secretly once in a girl band.
Evie has known she would be a writer since the age of fifteen, when she published that first heartwarming piece about the local humane society in her high school newspaper. After three years of knowing she would be a writer, she spent a number of years knowing she would be a U.S. senator, a sales executive, a civil rights activist, a lobbyist, a teacher, a university president, a disco band back-up singer, and a psychometrician. She has been back around to writer for a little while now – long enough to assume, using historical models, it is permanent.
You are encouraged to take a look around the site at some of Evie’s work, and at some of her “work”, and contact her at your pleasure. You can also be her friend on MySpace and Facebook, because everyone's doing it. And please show your coupons to the Register Associate before he rings your items.
