Sara K. Runnels

Sara K. Runnels is a seasoned humor writer, copywriter, screenwriter and writer-writer living in Seattle, WA.

She is a regular humor contributor to The New Yorker, and her words have been featured in Elle, Cosmopolitan, McSweeney’s, Betches, REI, Yahoo! Life, OverheardLA and Reader’s Digest, among other publications that respect scintillating wordplay. She also writes thoughtful personal essays to remind people she’s not a total clown.

Sara has spent more than 18 years pushing corporate boundaries by writing extremely fun and edgy copy for a variety of popular brands (including airlines, TV networks and dating apps—all of life’s necessities).

Her witticisms, viral one-liners and sharp social commentary can be found, quite literally, all over the internet under the handle @omgskr. She has amassed more than 130,000 followers across social channels, particularly for her clever dating and relationship content.

Beyond writing, all of her free time is spent watching very good (and very bad) television, traveling as much as possible, drinking overpriced martinis on hotel rooftops, still adapting to the Pacific Northwest after 13 years in NYC and never being able to sleep because she is full of very good (and very bad) ideas.
