When it comes to writing, Rachel has a bit of a multiple personality disorder. She loves children’s books, from charming picture books, to quirky and giggle-inducing middle grade novels, to gripping dystopian/post apocalyptic young adult novels. She loves poignant, heart-tugging women’s fiction, laugh-out-loud funny chick-lit, and romantic comedy. She also loves beautifully wrought literary fiction and captivating historicals.
Little wonder she writes across so many genres!
Her short stories have appeared in literary magazines, both in print and online. Several of them are now available for Kindle, including her first collection, Learning to Fly, and her chick-lit/romantic comedy novelette, How to Cook a Turkey—the first in her DIY Dating series.
When she’s not writing, you might find her refurbishing old furniture rescued from thrift stores and garage sales, puttering in the garden despite the fact her thumbs aren’t the greenest, clipping coupons, carving down the local mountains on her snowboard, or shouting at the TV during Hockey Night in Canada. Her favourite season is autumn, she prefers tea to coffee, and she wishes every morning began at ten a.m.
Born on Vancouver Island, she’s had a life-long love affair with its rugged coasts and windswept beaches. Many of her stories are set there. She hopes to return to ‘the Island’ one day, but for now, even though she hates the rain, she lives just outside Vancouver, British Columbia, with her husband, their two sons, and one very spoiled house rabbit.

So pleased to find this information about Rachel! Now I'll have to check out these stories that I didn't realize are available on Kindle. :)
