| Introduction | My name is Rachael. I'm a writer. I have cerebral palsy. You’ve probably already read the headline. It says:” Danger Is My Middle Name!” I'm the kind of person who will do almost anything for excitement. If someone says, “Rachael, Don’t you think this is a little dangerous?" My immediate response is, “Danger is my middle name!" My first book,” The Hunt for Heaven" has been published through Chaplain Publishing. I have two articles published and I'm working on putting together a portfolio. My articles have been published in the "Santa Clarita Magazine," my local magazine, and the "Canyon Call," my college newspaper. I'm currently working on a devotional book via this blog site. My goal in doing this website is to get the attention of editors who publish devotionals, and perhaps fulfill my dream of creating a devotional magazine for children. On my blog I talk about the many adventures and challenges I face with CP. I hope you enjoy my writing. If you have any questions, comments, or writing ideas, feel free to let me know. Are you ready for an adventure? Hold On! It's going to be a wild ride! |
| Interests | When I am not here at the computer writing books and blogs for Christians and Christian children, I love to sing, go out with "Fun Life" and play games with my friends. I love to read and shop, I love to go to church, and spend time with my family and friends. I also love to be stoped while I am out in the community and asked questions about my wheelchair, disability and how it effects my life. I love to teach children about acceptance for people who have challenges in their lives. |
| Favorite Movies | One of my all time favorites is "Annie" and my favorite Disney movie is "The Little Mermaid" Both of these are my favorites because the heroin in each is searching for and trying to be independent. Independence is a very important part of my life as it is hard for me to do much for myself. I also enjoy many comedies and children's movies, I guess I'm just a big kid at heart. |
| Favorite Music | I really enjoy Christian music with strong messages, Children's music, and particularly music by Renee Bondi, I love her music because I can relate to her as a person, she to is in a wheelchair. |
| Favorite Books | I like picture books because they are bright and colorful. I love devotional books, the bible, autobiographies and biographies, particularly about people like Jim Henson and Mr. Rogers. Some of my favorites are the Autobiographies and Biographies because it just goes to show, if they can do it, so can I. |
What kind of tape is best for creating a sculpture?
Scotch tape, because it sticks to itself very well.
