I'm an English teacher who loves reading, music, and going to live shows. I am engaged to be married in January 2027, and between my fiance and I, we have 3 dogs. I'm into alternative culture (goth music, darkwave/coldwave). I set reading challenges for myself every year, and this year, I'm falling a bit behind. My biggest completed challenge was 162 books in one year! I love paper arts and crafts; I collect stickers and love sending snail mail with or without reason. My favorite pastime is going on a walk with a podcast or an audiobook in my headphones.
