I have loved writing and illustrating since I was a child, and created with colourful explosions all the curiosities that crossed my path. It was a world of magic, drama and pure bliss. And while I have continued to write, illustrate and journal my way through my adult years, it is only recently that sharing my life experiences have felt like an inevitable evolution.

Storytelling is the most powerful tool we have a species. Stories have the power to connect us where understanding has been lost. They create space for greater expression of our diversity. Stories can heal. Stories can enlighten us. Stories can bring joy and wonderment. We’re hardwired for storytelling!

As an avid reader, curator and creator, I have had the joy of owning my own bookstore, facilitating writing workshops, being the Artistic Director of the Brisbane Writers Festival, writing for online journals and working with community in Library services.

With all of these years immersed in books, stories and community, I find myself now ready for my next iteration of storytelling. Knowing the power of sharing ideas and techniques that help us to explore our inner landscapes, I will be presenting writing workshops, offering journal writing courses, and in time also releasing my written works that will include children’s books and adult non-fiction.

You can follow the journey by signing up to my e-newsletter for details on all the adventures in writing, workshops and my blog posts for book reviews! You’ll find me on socials on instagram @rfw.writer

Much love,
Rachel
