Rachael started writing short stories and poems at a young age and had a poem published in America. 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. From admin support, technical author, trainer to technical project manager. She never stopped writing, completing seven books (five for The Children of Pisces) while she stayed home as a single mother raising her one-year-old twin son and daughter and working as a childminder. During the COVID-19 lockdown, she introduced her eleven-year-old twins to this series, who fell in love with it.

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.
