"...not because I was trying to be deceptive, but because what they saw of me was distilled down to my ability with written communication and that was something I was good at." Oh, the Internet. How I love it.
Your path through the educational system sounds something like I suspect mine would have if I hadn't been homeschooled for a while first and then switched schools eight times in the next five years, more or less.
The list of People I Look Up To is ever-shifting. It used to mostly consist of my sister. Currently it contains lots of writers. (Variations on "look up to" have ensued.) There are many many worthy people who are not on it, too. Which is to say, you are not specifically on it, but I am still pleased that you'd consider me an equal.
