About PBF

Hey all! I'm Leigh Monson, your Pretentious Best Friend, and this is the one stop shop to find all my written works available online. I primarily write for Substream Magazine, but don't be surprised to see a few other publications pop up as well, or perhaps a quick editorial written here if I fancy it. If you have a movie that you'd like to see reviewed or an idea for an editorial, send me an email at leigh@substreammagazine.com. You can also reach me via Facebook and Twitter. I'll be happy to dole out some tough love for you.
