In the Spotlight

Very moving poetry! This book takes you on a powerful journey through religious deconstruction, trauma, self-discovery and acceptance. It is easy to relate to whether or not you yourself have gone through religious and personal trauma. Meaningful visuals as well. Highly recommend!

This collection of poetry hits so hard. Incorporating a lot of christian imagery and analogies, it really captures growing up in the church, being damaged by the church, and the difficult--yet empowering--journey away.

Critics and readers alike have praised Rachel's work for its thought-provoking nature and insightful narratives. Her poetry has been described as a source of comfort and inspiration for many.

About Rachel

White female with brown curly hair, blue eyes and facial piercings.

Rachel was raised in central Florida as one of three girls, latchkey kids with a public library at the end of the street. After receiving her degree in Elementary Education from The University of Florida, she began her career as an educator, teaching students not only how to read, but to love it.

From writing her first poem as a child about a fish and a dish while playing on her dad's boat, she was hooked. When not writing she enjoys her grandma hobbies, being home with her dog, and spending time with her family and friends.
