About the Author

Rachelle Parker is a Lyrical Poetic Storyteller...Nassawadox born, Brooklyn bred.  Rachelle is never happy with the now she is always in the beyond. With the what has been, the what is and the what should be. Her love affair with metaphysics has brought her into a world where channeling her love of kin, disrespect for humans and maternal knowledge of the cycles of life.  She is perpetually humbled by the gifts she has been afforded, from the muses of the great beyond. Tapping into this mindset has allowed her to win acclaim in several distinctions including a prestigious and coveted Pushcart nomination in 2023. Enumerating her varied and respectable literary background and accomplishments would only serve to pull focus from her ancestral life’s quest to fearlessly keep the channel open as a conduit for her writings...the stories, the rhythms, the songs of nature.
