Hello all! My name is Rachel and I am lucky enough to work in the field . . . more or less. I am an editor for Upper Deck Entertainment. I also do the occasional bit of copywriting and freelancing. My goal, like so many of you, no doubt, is to be a published novelist. I have completed my first book and will be posting it here a chapter at a time. Mostly I'm looking for feedback, but who knows . . . maybe there are some acquisitions editiors on blogit! I don't do much in the realm of short stories or nonfiction, but I will post the occasional shorter work or article. I suspect I may begin to use blogit to encourage fresh writing, as I am working on a second and a third novel ("working") at what could generously be described as a snail's pace. Perhaps posting those works here, as well, would light the proverbial fire under my butt. I'm quite the procrastinator, but I know that if I hear from you folks and you tell me you want to hear more from me, it will motivate me.
