Rachel Olsen

I am a life-long avid reader. I've been writing ever since I declared my major as journalism, and joined the school newspaper team in undergrad.

I hold a master's degree in communication. And I teach communication, creativity and innovation courses at the University of North Carolina in Wilmington.

I also hold coaching certifications and coach writers through the book writing process at Novel Confidence.

I write on my Mac, mostly from home but occasionally from a coffee shop, our local crepe cafe, or on the nearby beach..

I read mostly from the categories of women's fiction, southern fiction, popular non-fiction and business innovation. But I also read outside theses lines - from cookbooks, to biographies, to YA to whatever strikes me.
