Classic First-Date Questions Updated for the End Times
What’s your favorite food . . . to store in your doomsday bunker?
The New Yorker

You can take the girl out of New York, but you can’t take her out of The New Yorker!!!

My latest @newyorker piece was thoroughly researched simply by…going on hundreds of first dates as the end of the world looms & the earth slowly ghosts us!!!

If you love/read/share it, you’re totally invited back to my doomsday bunker. ;)

Single Men Pitch Themselves To Me On Shark Tank
This Shark is ready to settle — I mean, invest!
Medium

I entered a humor writing contest last month (in between all the other writing I somehow did), and placed in the top 15 (#12) of ~400 entries. 🏆 HONORED to walk away a winner! Unlike all these men who entered my Shark Tank.

The 48-Hour Second Date
Our connection thrived over text, but 48 hours in person was a different story

I wrote a cathartic and uncharacteristically vulnerable piece about taking big risks in the name of love or something like it. ❤️

OMG it's SKR!

Portrait/Logo

Sara Runnels is a writer living in New York City. Most notably, her work has appeared in Tinder messages, late-night tweets, Gmail inboxes, group texts, Instagram captions, the Notes app, Tumblr drafts and abandoned Word documents. But luckily, she pays her bills by being a sought-after marketing copywriter, where she has spent a good portion of her career writing for distinguished brands like CBS, JetBlue, Birchbox, MTV, Verizon and Disney. A piece she wrote about God creating millennial earth was the #7 most-read piece on McSweeney’s in 2017. Other buzzworthy accomplishments include being c-r-o-w-n-e-d the 1994 spelling bee champion, and in 2014, Beyoncé posted a picture of Sara wearing a clever bee costume to her Facebook page. Lisa Frank also once bought her a lobster roll. All of her free time is spent watching very good (and very bad) television, traveling as much as possible, documenting first dates in real-time on Instagram and never being able to sleep because she is so full of very good (and very bad) ideas.
