“The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there, written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible.” ― Vladimir Nabokov
Rachel Grenier has been writing her entire life. Since she could hold a pencil, she has been penning short stories and little books. She grew up in her family’s bookshop, surrounded and inspired by thousands of authors and the words they had the courage to put to paper.
As a journalism student with a creative writing minor, Rachel’s college career continued to focus like a spotlight on the written word. For the past 18 years, she has made a living as a copywriter and marketing consultant, using her writing talents to help other people tell their stories.
But the whispers of her own stories continued to beckon her, ever stronger. Finally brave enough to answer their call, Rachel now looks forward to returning to the pure joy of writing she knew as a child.
Inspired by her tutu’s (grandmother’s) love of historical fiction, as well as the works of authors like Elizabeth Berg, Rosamunde Pilcher, Diana Gabaldon and Elizabeth Gilbert, Rachel writes to make sense of senseless things. She writes to move people’s emotions. She writes to give hope. And she writes to remind people to soak in the “ordinary moments” of each day, because those are what our lives are made up of.
Like the whales, Rachel migrates between Hawaii and Alaska – the only two places she has ever called home.
