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.

PREACH!

“
They felt to me like a mafia of music lovers, who were supposedly representing ‘alternative,’ but at the same time I found them to be sort of oppressive. You couldn’t like certain bands if they were too pop. And if you didn’t know which band had split up to re-form the band that you were discussing, then you didn’t have an opinion. You couldn’t even throw out an opinion, because you just didn’t have the background.
