While the V-Life and Careful-ish novels are Honey Parker’s first two fiction series, they are far from her first written words. A veteran advertising writer and creative director for big agencies in New York and Los Angeles, she eventually co-founded her own creative shop (Slow Burn Marketing) in Park City, Utah. She has been a working screenwriter in Hollywood, co-authored several business books, and is a published poet. Somewhere in the middle of all that, Honey began doing standup comedy in clubs and on TV, and won the coveted title of Funniest Person In Advertising. (That title came with neither a sash nor cash.)
Honey is married to her best friend and business partner, Blaine Parker. Or, as Honey’s father refers to him, “The man who took her off the market.” In their spare time, Honey & Blaine create content for TV, run an ad agency, speak to small-business owners around the globe about profitable branding, and co-host the podcast, CoupleCo: Working With Your Spouse For Fun & Profit. As the most amateur of athletes, they’ve raced together in full and half marathons and triathlons. Honey’s other “accomplishments” include sailing in the North American Fireball Championships despite the fact she cannot sail. She also sparred with the World Female Boxing champ, Christy Martin. A feat for which Honey is most proud that she neither bled nor cried. Honey now based in Bay Saint Louis Mississippi with regular appearances in Park City, Utah. Life could be much, much worse. |
