Bio

Rachel escaped the deserts of the West and settled into her happily for now in the green oasis of Maryland. Now she plays tug-of-war between her love of storytelling and chasing children.

Besides world-building on the page, she renovates and redecorates homes with each move. Her current project is to transform a cute 1970s colonial-style home with untamed color.

Rachel loves tent camping, ballroom dancing, and binge-reading.

A Little Backstory

Rachel grew up in the rolling hills of the Palouse. She is a member of the chronic illness community due to her battles with multiple autoimmune diseases, depression, and anxiety. Her weight has fluctuated, but she finds peace in self-love at any and every size as part of her recovery from disordered eating.

Writing and delving into her characters' points of view enlightened her to the fact that she is demi-sexual (on the asexual spectrum). Once learning that, an impressive amount of her relationship history made oodles of sense.

She grew up in a large family with eight siblings. Fortunately they can laugh about family drama, and it remains an endless source of humor and bonding.
