Welcome Rachel Starr Thomson Readers!

Hi! I’m an impassioned writer across many genres, irreverent Baptist minister, director of development for a public health nonprofit, and owner of a 6 year old tabby cat named Jelly Belly. I’m really glad you’re here. All my works have an ultimately uplifting and hopeful message—there is often A LOT of drama on the way to that hope—, no matter the genre. I give God the glory by using the writing talent the LORD gave me to help make Christ’s joy complete in others (and myself!). If that sounds good to you, welcome aboard. We’re gonna have a blast!

I carried around my first novel in draft form for about 20 years before I finally decided to do something with it during the pandemic. Then everything came like a flood. I have four works out in the wild now with two more coming in the next two months. I’ve even written a 100K space opera that I hope to revise and get out this year. 

I’m still finding my way as a writer, I just know I love it! Writing completes me as a person in a way that Tom Cruise never could (“You complete me,” get it ?😆 Yes I’m the girl that explains jokes🙋🏽‍♀️). That’s why I’m glad that we’re together on this exhilarating journey. Sit back and enjoy the ride.
