Hi all, I figured I should really make a wee post here before I get in too deep.
I'm Paige (but Rhi's fine, as per the handle). I'm 29, complexly-gendered, and from the US Midwest, now living in Glasgow with my husband. I'm a bit of a social justice boffin and an unabashed geek, a classic rock fan, superkeen on science fiction, and I watch way too many random documentaries on BBC iPlayer. From a job/school perspective, I did my BA in American Studies with a pop culture focus, and more recently, an MA in media production, but I currently work in HR. I still toy with the idea of academia, mind...and I adore cultural studies like nothing else.
As for how I got here, I keep a half an eye on comics a good chunk of the time, but pop back in a lot more where gender, race, and portrayals of other under-represented people are concerned. I'm keen on indie comics and webcomics as well. (Oh, and I follow Beth on Twitter, so that's how I got here, for that matter.)
So yes, hello again! I never know how to end this sort of thing.
