About her poetry: Running Through Trees and Glitter
"Rachel's collection of poems work together like a diary that takes one through a harrowing journey of survival and self discovery. Not a light read as regards content but very confessional and revelatory. A poetry that doesn't shy away from honesty and truth but addresses those virtues head on. A powerful 1st collection that offers hope by way of a connecting theme of travelling through a forest of dark secrets that also arrives at a kind of inner redemption. A journey to enlightenment by way of personal trials and tribulations that leads to the final poem 'Let her float' that closes and consolidates the collection with an affirmative message to herself and the reader.".
