Hey y'all, my name is Mari -- I'm on tumblr as opalborn, and if you want to call me Opal feel free. I moderate the Hellenic polytheist board, and I also teach full-time and tutor, so you probably won't see me much outside of that ^^;;
I've loved the Greek gods (the Theoi) since I was, hm, eight or so? And actively believed in them since I was 16. Which was over a decade ago. I still have a lot to learn about reconstructionist Hellenic polytheism, but the core belief and I have a long history together.
Like I said, I teach full-time and tutor -- English is my preferred subject, but I do a lot of test prep too (specifically for the ACT and SAT). I also write poetry, which, if you know me from tumblr, is probably how you know me. I published a book of poems and prayers for the Theoi last year, and I'm working on another. I'm playing Fallen London and ignoring my responsibilities as often as possible (my character's name is Shahrizai). Also I am terrible at talking about myself, so you should all feel free to ask any questions you have ^^
Oh also, I live in New Orleans and love living in the Deep South. Winter is way overrated.
