Avery Mancuso is a junior and first-year writer for the Highland Fling. She is a proud rat fanatic and feeds them better than she feeds herself. When she isn’t diligently working/struggling in her AP and college classes, she is listening to music at home or drawing. She hopes to become a writer after finishing university. Her only wish is to live peacefully in a cabin with her six pet rats and her wife while working on her upcoming novel with unrelenting zeal. (Also, if you ask politely, she will be more than happy to show you previews of her fictional writing or pictures of her beloved rats.)
