Featured Interview With Rachel Griffin
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
Born and raised in Cleveland, OH. Currently living in Cincinnati where my career genuinely kicked off. I had a cat named Yoshi who was a grumpy divo! My husband has been an amazing adventure guide (helped me experience things I never have). The earliest I began taking writing seriously was when I was thirteen in seventh grade. Coincidentally enough, the first poems I’ve written were about trauma I was experiencing growing up. I just hadn’t fully realized it until adulthood. Photography became something I incorporated into my career when I was a senior in high school. Photography was what I chose to go to school for afterwards. Currently working on four more books. Three of them debut in 2022. The final is TBA.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I noticed I like to occasionally read when I was a child in elementary school. I always had amazing grades in all of my writing classes, but never wrote anything for myself instead of school until I was in seventh grade turning thirteen.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favorite poet is Maya Angelou. I love reading her poetry whenever I have a moment to relax.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
This book is a collection of poems I had written from my late teens to early adulthood. They are about the traumas the resulted after my previous relationships not going/ending so well. Home life didn’t generate much love, so I looked in the incorrect places for it. I soon realize I make an incorrect turn, but the journey was still rough. Hated the journey. Appreciate it more because of the victory.
