Subtitled, This Week’s Other Guest Blogger
Hello, everyone! I’m Linnaeus and I’ve been given the honor of being the tag-team partner and other guest blogger this week. I’ve no particular qualifications other than having been around Feministe for a good long while and being asked by Jill. My story is pretty simple: I grew up in the Midwest, then moved to the Pacific Northwest about ten years ago. Currently, I’m a graduate student studying history and living in Seattle, to which I frequently refer as the Emerald City, but which is more accurately called the Gray City this time of year.
I’m excited and a little nervous. I’ve never blogged before, and the standard set by both bloggers and commenters here at Feministe is a very high one. My grandfather, however, once said to me that “if you go through life doing just what you can, you’ll find you won’t get much of anywhere.” So, with that advice in mind, I’m giving it a go.
