Welcome to Parchment Tales. Parchment Tales is the story of my life, told as a fiction story, " The Very Miscellaneous Antics of an 12-year old Overachiever". It centers around Eleanor Schultz,a Seattle 7th grader. Like me, she's an academic overachiever. But she's not perfect. Take away the cold, hard, textbook facts and she's the most socially awkward person you'll ever meet. This is the chronicle of her (and my) life.
