About Rach the Rache Drache Elg

Teacher by day, writer by night, paper-grader by weekend.

I've been writing for fun since the third grade, and have wanted to be a full-time published author since the fifth grade. I finished my first novel(s) at 13 and tried to publish them--and thank goodness I was rejected!

I studied German and Linguistics in college, and toward the end of my undergrad experience, I became involved at the local animal shelter. Little did I know, that was the first stepping stone to me becoming what I never thought I would be: a teacher. THE HORROR!

I just completed my second year of teaching (two years of 9th grade English) and am looking forward to my third at a new school, at a new grade level (6-8), in a new subject (reading!), in a new state.

If it's summer vacation, I'm probably available to review your work. I promise to keep the red pen and teacher-isms in check.

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
