Brune wrote and photographed the Army and its soldiers for five years. When she moved on, she didn't quit writing stories with soldiers in them, just added werewolves, sorcerers, a couple evil mad scientists, and a Fae or two. Now a full-time author and writing coach living in California, Rachel enjoys poking around former military installations and listening for the ghosts of old soldiers ... or writing them into her latest short story. As the founder and chief editor of Crone Girls Press, her goal is to publish the best of dark speculative fiction and horror. In addition, she is a contributing editor to the Writerpunk Press anthology series, which benefits the PAWS no-kill animal shelter in Lynnwood, WA. She lives with her spouse, two daughters, one reticent cat, and two flatulent rescue dogs.","brand":"Crone Girls Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50376634269970,"sku":"9781952388002","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_1719e772-0523-4f67-a0e8-e826a1411a11.jpg?v=1728602043","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/coppice-brake-a-dark-fiction-anthology-9781952388002","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
