| Dragonsdaughter |
Author has written 17 stories for Labyrinth, Rurouni Kenshin, and Slayers. My name is Rachael and I am the Dragon's Daughter. There isn't much to tell about me. I'm just the messenger. You're here for another reason: the stories. Mister Barry Holstun Lopez tells us that everything is held together with stories. That is all that is holding us together, stories and compassion. I think he's right. I am in love with The Word. The human language seems to me the epitome of human innovation. As many strange and wonderous things we make there are even more still that exist solely in the worlds created by our imagination. So come in, sit a spell, and relax. Here is where I weave my tales and grapple with my muses. I invite you as my audience. Let us witness the birth of new worlds together. 09-03-2006 Heads up, folks.
