Rachael started writing short stories and poems at a young age and had a poem published in America when she was 20 years old. She wrote her first novel aged thirteen, entered a few competitions and was then distracted by almost thirty years of a successful IT career and motherhood. Realising that technology was the way of the future she abandonned English at university for Computer Science and yet found a way to combine both passions througout her career. From admin support, technical author and editor, trainer to technical project manager. She never stopped writing books and documents, completing seven books (five for The Children of Pisces) while she stayed home as a single mother raising her toddler twin son and daughter and working as a childminder before going back to her IT career. During the COVID-19 lockdown, she introduced her eleven-year-old twins to this series, who fell in love with it. And then so did their friends. They insisted that she got them published and so in 2022 book 1 was in print.

She is at her happiest making up adventures in a quiet room with the fire crackling and cats jumping on the keyboard. Rachael loves to have fun, jumping out of a perfectly good plane, diving deep beneath the ocean, swimming with dolphins and taking her children in a hot air balloon over the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. They barely survived! She believes life is best lived to the full. Over the years, she has broadened her experiences from computer science to energy healing by becoming a holistic well-being coach for people and animals, studying Energy, Aromatherapy and Zoopharmacognosy, as well as helping nurture creativity in others, including her children. Rachael’s IT skills have served her well and encouraged her to start a Publishing company to help other creatives express themselves.
“My animals are my life, they make every day worth living and feature in my writing a lot. My Husky is like my own Chewbacca. My fox red Labrador inspired Bardo, who is like a grumpy version of yoda. My cats are members of the Galactic federation and Zen Masters just visiting Earth in every way. My animals inspire me and breath elife into every day and every chapter.”
Rachael loves writing science fiction and also adores travel and has also started her non-fiction travel guides.
