I currently live in Florida
for the past 2 years. During this time, I have published 3 books with a
fourth one coming out on March 1, 2020. I have a tendency to write
about things people really don't want to talk about such as child sexual
abuse. I find that this crisis has had a tremendous effect on many.
My personal story is posted in my adult book "Journey of an Invisible
Brown Girl" pertaining to my experience. I also developed a female
superhero who addresses this issue and others for children. It's hope
that, 'The Adventures of Chocolate Sunshine ', will be introduced and
discussed with all children at home as well as in schools.
I was interviewed with GreyFeathers.com and have done a podcast on blogtalkradio.com pertaining to this topic.
I have some baby books written and ready for me to publish as soon as I figure out how to do board books.
I have raised 5 children, completed my Master's degree in Criminal Justice.
As
a crone, I have become more creative and outside of writing, I make
jewelry, make natural skin products, experiment with natural remedies,
enjoy nature, food, dancing, and traveling.

You
know how when life is busy with work, kids, obligations, etc. you
promise yourself that when you finally have the time, you will
write...well, I, Rebecca McCurry, finally have the time.
Two
years ago, I had a stroke and have been battling with subsequent health
issues culminating in cervical surgery two months ago. These challenges
gave me the opportunity to see life differently and reminded me to value the simple things in life. I take nothing for granted.
At just 55, I was forced to retire ( due to health issues) from a 28
year career teaching English and writing. As a runner, cyclist and avid
Yoga practitioner, sitting still was not my forte! However, the stroke
left me no choice but to develop patience. I consider it a gift in
disguise!
Now, it is my turn to write for pleasure and to
indulge my quest for knowledge as a lifetime learner. I have begun my
new career as a writer by creating a personal blog and site to enrich
the lives of others. My blog CelticWinds ( musings on life and
meditation) and The Strength of Women ( posts to encourage and support
each other) can be found via FB. I’m writing a book about strong, little
known women in history who have contributed to change. It is a
culmination of years of research.
