Rachel Profiling

Hello, I'm Rachel.

Writer/editor. New Mexican tumbleweed blown east to skyscraper country.

Right now, I am working on a book about F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sheilah Graham, and Hollywood in the 1930s. It will also contain a lot of drinking, powder blue suits, dances at the Cocoanut Grove, betrayal, gossip columns, crazy ladies, secret Jews, film lot moguls, and Dorothy Parker quips at funerals. If the world is still around then, it should be out from Random House around 2014. So let's hope the Mayans were wrong.

If you want to say hi please do. Or find me in short form, here.

Jane Lynch talks Glee in NYM today. I love that at age 49 she is finally having her mainstream moment.

Not specifically, but what I tapped into is the part of all of us that was not treated well somewhere in our life, and we’re out for revenge. It’s like The Girl Most Likely To. Remember that Stockard Channing movie from the eighties? She was really, really fat, and then she lost all this weight and she started killing people who were mean to her. It’s that bad opportunity. Sue Sylvester probably got teased and was not popular in high school, and she’s exacting her revenge.
