About Laurelin

Laurelin is an opinionated obsessive-compulsive feminist with a taste for dairy products. She does not really ever know what to write on ‘about me’ assignments, and finds writing in the third person about herself weird, yet strangely compelling.

She is contactable at laurelinintherain@yahoo.co.uk. She welcomes links, hellos and news. However, Laurelin wishes to make it known to potential trolls that any abusive emails will be published on her blog for the amusement of all.

Laurelin’s academic background is Greek antiquity, and she can be relied upon to be frustratingly pedantic about grammar, quotes, historical evidence and how tea should be made.

Laurelin tries to write poetry and learn Wing Tjun kung fu. She collects books and hisses at foods she is allergic to when she sees them in the supermarket. She loves rodents. She likes to list.

Things you can ask Laurelin to do: make a cup of tea, watch a Buffy marathon, practice her side-kicks, talk about the history of women in Greek antiquity, watch squirrels, play with rats, mice, hamsters, cats, eat brie.

Things you cannot ask Laurelin to do: long division, give directions, seperate left and right, eat whole tomatoes, sing the national anthem, watch Friends, get up before half past seven, drive, cut her hair.
