Rachel Karp

Names have always been a funny thing to me. In my twenty-something years on this earth so far, I have gone by multiple names from those associated with birds to cute nicknames like RayRay. I like to be called Rachel or Q, preferably.

I've been a writer since I was able to form sentences onto paper; a reader for the same amount of time. The written word has been my passion since I can remember, so it should come as no surprise for me to be pursuing a career as a professional writer. My dream is to write a book that is read over and over again - a personal favorite for people across the globe.

I inhale books as though my body runs on printed ink. I have a personal preference for science fiction, romance and horror (a killer book is one that combines them all). I also enjoy scribbling down a review or two in my spare time.

My life quote: "If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don't write, because our culture has no use for it." ~Anais Nin
