Hi, my name is Rachel and there are a few things you should know about me!

1) I read about a book every three days (this used to be a book a day, but I have since been placed in the front of the class and can no longer use Math as reading time my time has become limited.)
2) My family is from South Africa, I'm from England, and I live in The US
3) I never tan. (ever)
4) Obviously I like to write
5) If you want me to critique your work just PM me
6) I'm chronically lazy
7) I don't like people who judge books by their covers. (metaphorically) 

Here is a list of my current favorite books. It will change, frequently:

The Jellicoe Road
Graceling
Candor
The Book Thief
The Night Circus
The Mortal Instruments
The Fault in our Stars 
Monsters of Men
Divergent
Delirium
Unwind


My real life friends are@nativeskatergirl2313 and@phoenixfeather21! I also have a collab account called@Dreams_of_ink with@phoenixfeather21. 

Also, I have a tumblr http://kleptomaniac1.tumblr.com/ check me out! (and follow. I'm so unpopular)

Message me if you want me to read your story.

And that's all I'm going to tell you.

@nativeskatergirl2313 I wouldn't be anywhere else. :)
The great thing about you is you're always there. Thanks :)
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!! THAT IS SO PERFECT!
Miss you already! Good news is that I might not have to get the surgery until I'm older. If I don't gain weight as I get older I will also maximize the amount of years I won't have to get the surgery. The doctor says that skating is the best thing for me right now and that I'll be skating again as soon as the swelling goes down in my knee completely and it will get easier and easier as I do the physical therapy. :) Wish me luck!
Yes, yes it is
@nativeskatergirl2313 is that a Bruno mars song?
Rachel, you're amazing...just the way you are

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I enjoy your work immensely (I'm simultaneously reading The Black Prince and The Quiet Game) and I'm really looking forward to new chapters :) I think it's so impressive how you manage to write a captivating story with hardly any dialogue from the main characters! Anyway, write on and I'll definitely be there to read it.

@Artgeek12 Actually, this is very useful. I think what happened was that I've been writing a lot for my creative writing course where my style is...
The Quiet Game

@Zcarlin Wow, I like this song! And I do think it goes well with the story.
The Quiet Game

@Zcarlin It's actually the re-write I'm working on! Hopefully there will be chapters of both up soon. Thank you! :)

@maplebird Don't worry, everyone does it! :)
