About me

This is my first post here on goodreads. I want to take the time to actually breathe, and realize that wow, I am officially an author. Just having that mere title takes the breath right out of my lungs. To be able to say that one of your dreams came true is the best feeling in the world. Now, where to begin? A little about me? I was born in Chicago with one other sibling. I have a french toy poodle, who is seriously like my child. I have been writing ever sense I can remember. I remember my brother and family always making fun of me. Why you ask? Simple, it's because I would always write short stories and read it to them. It was before I could even spell properly. They would always tease me but I never stopped. My love for writing blossomed like a flower in the spring. I continued to write and write and write. I love to read. I feel as if writing is as important as the air that I breathe. Reading stimulates the mind and takes me away from reality for but a moment. It's hard writing stuff about myself because I sometimes never know what to say. Well, this is my first post. Enjoy:]The Wales BoyRachel M. Greenebaum

You can be. Don't hope for it. Just keep practicing and reading. You are doing all the right things. Once you feel you are writing well then practice taking your writing and rewrite it to be a deeper or different story. That teaches you to edit not for grammar but to improve the story.

Jolie Suarez thanks. :)

I actually finished a "book" but i don't know who would publish it because I don't know any publishers!

I always wanted to be a singer too! I've done all those shows like american idol, america's got talent, and never made it far. Ultimately if its your dream you can't give up. Just got to keep pushing.


message 10: by Jolie (new)

Jolie Suarez omg! really? i looooooooooove those shows!!!! do you know whic episodes you were on?


message 11: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Moretti I never made it to the episodes. although i was close to on american idol. I was in the crowd taping and stuff i auditioned in st. louis. It was a very longgg day lol. I use to love those shows too until simon left:/


message 12: by Jolie (new)

Jolie Suarez why not when simon left?!?!!?


message 13: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Moretti i just really liked simon a lot when he left i stopped watching. then paula left and I was really sad. I loved the old three. is the new version good?


message 14: by Jolie (new)

Jolie Suarez yeah, it's pretty good. i was just wondering about the whole Simon thing because he a nice guy, but sometimes he can say some rotton things.

I agree 100% with you. he does go over board sometimes, which is very stressful. He speaks the truth most of the time though.

Jolie Suarez yes. :)
