Me

So, who am I? I’m a writer secretly disguised as a public school teacher. I spend my days desperately trying to teach unappreciative youths to enjoy, or at least tolerate the written word. When I get home, I transform into Frustrated Writer Girl. My true identity cannot be known, otherwise I might jeopardize the safety of all around me.

Seriously, I’m an English teacher, new mom, and lover of books and movies who spends a lot of her free time hanging out in a local coffee shop with my friends, despite my absolute hatred of actual coffee. I’m working on a book of vignettes and have a ton written and a theme, but haven’t quite figured out how to order them or tie them all completely together yet (plus, I think I need a few more). I go off on tirades constantly about my students, entertainment and people in general, which is probably what a lot of my posts will be about. I grew up in a pretty darn religious household and then moved into a really non-religious one, so I also have a lot of childhood baggage to complain about. Usually I would have sworn there, but as I’m doing the new mom thing, I’m trying to cut down on that.

Oh, and, I don’t actually like beets at all.
