My name is Zoë and I hail from Fayette County, Pennsylvania, arguably the best place on Earth. I left the wonderful world of patch towns, fire hall weddings, and drive-ins, at least for a little while: I'm a Writing, Lit, and Publishing major/Honors program student at Emerson College in Boston, MA. On a study abroad this semester in Well, Netherlands, which is fucking awesome. I get a disproportionate amount of joy in life out of things like trees, mountains, Diet Coke, 35mm film, thrift stores, the city of Pittsburgh, and extremely boring clerical work. My long-term goals in life are, succinctly, to see everything that I possibly can see in the world and write a lot. I'm not picky about what, I'd be a novelist as soon as I'd be a sportswriter. Hopefully I can be both and everything in between. Yeah. . .I'm really uncool but it's part of my "thing."
