Howdy! My name is Grace, though here in Mistica I usually go by Melody. I joined the site back in 2008, worked as a moderator for three years, and am now returning to the site after a long period of inactivity (what can I say, college takes a toll on free time)!

I'm a graduate student and aspiring Shakespeare scholar, and a nerd in most senses of the word. My strange list of favorite things includes Richard II, Battlestar Galactica, Ace Attorney, pretty books, old books, and pretty old books. My strange list of talents includes unwanted puns, unneeded song parodies, and crying over plays written 400 years ago about people who died 600 years ago.
