ABOUT ME

    Hi! I’m Rebecca Kolenda, but those who know me just call me Becca. :) I’m a quirky millennial with an old soul who loves Jesus. When I’m not writing my latest piece, scheduling meetups with friends, or accomplishing tasks on my detailed to-do list, you can find me nose-deep in a novel, sipping cocktails at local distilleries, or watching an Inter Miami CF game with my husband. My motivation for writing comes from an ambition to encourage, love, support, and inspire others.

​

    As a little girl, I gravitated to the emotional expression of words on paper—well, at least scribbles of words on paper. I often filled notebooks full of swirls and squiggles, scribbling my own thoughtful dialogue with each loop-de-loop across the thinly ruled lines. As I learned how to spell and communicate through writing, I was fascinated by the entire process. The ability to write whatever came to my mind and express my thoughts through my own penmanship was invigorating (although undoubtedly a bit sloppy and phonetically challenged).

​

    My appreciation for writing grew deeper as I discovered the power of words. I began to learn that words are more than their phonetic spellings and grammatically correct placement; words have purpose, and words have meaning. Using words intentionally has helped me express myself more effectively and realize the value of writing with authenticity and transparency. I’ve discovered that when I write with honest conviction, my words have the power to positively impact other people’s lives, too.
