Real Poems for Real Moms: From One Mother in the Trenches to Another

Donahue, Rachel S.: - Rachel Donahue isn't a typical homeschooling mother of four: after finishing her English degree, she and her husband, Mick, moved to Spain and spent the next dozen years in cross-cultural ministry. When family circumstances brought them back to North Carolina, a return to literature ushered her into a new season of writing: both poetry and the beginnings of a novel. Friendships with other writers, combined with her editing experience and design work, led to the publication of her first book: Real Poems for Real Moms: from a Mother in the Trenches to Another. Rachel is the author of Beyond Chittering Cottage: Poems of Place, published by Bandersnatch Books in 2021.
