Talking Hi, everyone!

Hi!

My name is Racheal and this is my first time posting here on the Absolute Write Water Cooler forums.

I'm an English literature major in my third year of college. I've been writing for as long as I can remember. I wrote my first "book" when I was in the 4th grade. Granted, it was about 10 hand written pages and had illustrations, but it was still a big deal for me.

I have no clue what I want to do once I graduate, but I know that my dream is to be an author.

I'm currently finessing a manuscript that I have been working on for a few years. I've had a few publishers interested in it, but they've asked me to polish it first.

I look forward to posting here and getting to know all of you!

Racheal
