**Kidlit. Curiosity. Magic!**

where imagination grows wild

Hi, I’m Rachael — a children’s fantasy author and mom of six.

I’m writing cozy, quirky adventures layered with emotional awareness, resiliency, and social wisdom. You’re already raising amazing kids. Let’s help them grow curious together, one story at a time.

about the author

Rachael loves magic with a deep heart.

Even with a background in English literature and broadcast, Rachael’s heart always found home in fantasy worlds. Redwall, Narnia, Hogwarts, and the Lower Elements—places where magic, adventure, and friendship came alive. Books were among her best friends.

Rachael continues to explore words, finding freedom through storytelling, counseling, and uncovering the beauty of her own life story.

She’s a wife, mom to six, and a former copy editor with a passion for debating commas.

Happily nestled in the NC Piedmont, Rachael and her family enjoy stories, crafting, and their trio of cats: Blueberry, Chocolate Chip, and Banana.

Rachael is represented by Blythe Daniel of the Blythe Daniel Agency
