Author has written 26 stories for General, Biography, Romance, Love, Life, and Nature.

My name is Rachel Thorlund and I am a fifteen year old high school student who writes incessantly whenever possible. I like to think of myself as a poet rather than an author or mere writer. My works are heavily influenced by the great writers, and my favorites, Sylvia Plath, Vladimir Nabokov, and Ian McEwan. I read more than write, which I think is fine since I'm still young. I enjoy writing about what I don't know, rather than what I do know, but I still do write poems and stories where I take something personal into my words. I honestly can't go a day without writing or reading, and I would love to pursue a career in writing when I'm older.


Favorite books:

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

Atonement by Ian McEwan

Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger

The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides


Reviews will be greatly appreciated! I've been writing for years but I've only just begun to let others read my work, so if you could take some short time to write a little review for any work of mine you read you will make this girl very happy. (:
