But I've decided to step out into the light...hallelujah! My name is Rachel Baron. I used to subscribe to writers eons ago, but nasty, nasty life forced me to drop off the face of the earth. Now, after reattaching my head to my neck, I am ready to return the the realm of the writers! It's good to see that writers is the same home away from home as it was a couple years ago. Now for the particulars. I am a masters student living in the Buffalo New York area. Yes, we have a ton of snow right now. I have a dog and a very bad cat. I work part-time at the Buffalo News (aka the Buffalo Snooze) as a ad designer. What I'm currently most proud of is that I have finally got off my duff and started an on-line journal, which is something I've wanted to do ever since I first logged onto the Net. I don't want to sound like a commercial for it, so if you want more info, just let me know...I'll definitely be asking your advice about this endeavor in the near future. I am hoping this time around I can make myself of some value to some of my fellow writers, and I will try to do at least one crit per day. I will probably do these privately, so if you don't hear from me please don't think I'm ignoring you! I think that's it for now. Any questions, ask away... I've gotten over my shyness :-) Rachel
