edit data

Rachel Valencourt swapped her flight attendant wings for a typewriter and has never looked back. Now crafting stories full-time and fueled by caffeine, she indulges her wanderlust with family trips and loses herself in novels as bold as her morning espresso.

Her debut, ‘Every Night Has A Dawn,’ was a finalist in the American Writing Awards, highlighting her as a fresh voice in contemporary literature. She lives in San Diego with her British husband, their teen daughters, and six-toed cat, Saffy.

Rachel is active on social media and has been blogging since 2010. You can follow her at @RachelValencourt on most platforms for updates and insights into her writing journey.

Rachel added a status update: I’ve recently had a lot of new followers here (welcome!), and I wanted to take a moment to introduce my debut trilogy. The Winds of Change series is a historical family saga that follows three generations of mothers and daughters—from the rugged reservation of Neah Bay in the 1930s to a global journey across France, England, and Australia. Now available on most book seller sites.
