I just read your bio, what an amazing story. You are an inspiration.

Stephen Fry said...

Rebecca, you're an amazing woman. So many would have given up or compromised their writing to fit the commercial market. But you still write what you want to write, what you need to write – and I admire you for it. I wish you all the luck in the world.

In an interview with Angie Ledbetter, Co-Editor of The Rose & Thorn Literary E-zine and Regional Representative of the National Association of Women Writers (US),  Rebecca said: 

You can’t swing a polo mallet [in the Cotswolds] without knocking out a member of the royal family or a major celebrity. All is not as it seems, however, and it’s that not-as-it-seems-ness that I like to play with in my novels.

 A coma survivor, Rebecca learnt to read again when she was eleven and went on to gain a degree in English.  After many adventures in England and America, she married a wonderful man and lives with him and other wildlife in a Cotswold village.
