About The Author


Velvet Hellion
Copyright © Rachael Allen 2010
Cover design by Rachael Allen ©
Rachael Allen is a native of Baltimore, Maryland, USA, who now lives in England with her husband. Growing up in Baltimore, she began writing at an early age, completing her first book when she was only nine years old. She enjoyed creating poetry and dabbling in art, but music was her real love. After being given a guitar as a teenager, she started to write and compose songs. Her other interests included her cats and two Arabian horses she trained and owned. Unfortunately, she was stricken with several chronic illnesses, including myalgic encephalomyelitis, which greatly changed her life and forced her to give up the horses she loved.

Velvet Hellion was a labor of love, born over many years. As Rachael found herself housebound more and more, she was determined to remain creative. To finally have this story published has been one of her dreams.



In tribute to my mother, here is a song I am singing by musician Don Conoscenti, and with his permission.

I am my mother's daughter;
her blood flows through my veins;
and though her soul is gone from earth,
her spirit still remains

Ramblings

 A man's worth is not measured by his success. Sometimes it is not the success of the job, but the fact you made someone smile, the fact you eased someone's suffering by listening to them with sincerity and compassion. We touch people's lives whether we realize it or not, and therein lies the true beauty on earth. Instead of focusing on making your mark in this world, focus on making your mark in someone's heart.

Our real mission is to love.
