June 14, 1982: Rebecca Louise E***** (Name omitted to protect the innocent?) is born. The world falls immediately into chaos.

Really though, that's my birthday, my younger sister Debby was born two years later. I have two older half-siblings as well and an adorable niece and nephew.

I did pretty well in elementary school. As a kindergartener I hated to color, but I've wanted to write books since before I knew how to spell my name. My pathetic attempts at writing make me want to hide in a corner somewhere, and I figure I'll probably feel the same in a couple of years about what I'm working on now.

I met up with really good friends in Junior High School, played the cello and piano off and on, and started drawing. In ninth grade I won a national writing award. I met my boyfriend my sophomore year of high school and got involved in theater. I graduated eleventh in my class and moved on to college, where I am now.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah...
