About me:
I'm a music teacher in a very small district in Wisconsin. Some of my interests (besides reading!) are music, photography, environmental causes, human rights issues, politics (flaming liberal, here) and, of course, my two lovely cats, Fennel and Fitz. I LOVE TO TRADE, so if you see anything on my AVL list that you'd like to read, just ask!
