Who am I? I am Rachel, and I've been running this website (in its various forms) since 1997. I won't give out my age, last name, or where I live...but I do live in the U.S. (and I'm sure that narrows it down considerably...).
As if you couldn't guess, I love reading. I also love to write, shop, design websites, watch movies, listen to obscure (and not-so-obscure) music, and do volunteer work. I am an Athens community leader, a volunteer at GetaCLU.net, and a NoWonder.com Support Tech. I also volunteer at a local soup kitchen, play with kids at a local family shelter, and am a peer counselor. Oh, and I almost forgot: a student!
My favorite book is The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. If you haven't read it, I really encourage you to do so! It's an incredible book, and has changed the way I write.
