Author: Rainey Hall

The first poem I wrote, (cowboy poetry), was somewhere around age nine, and had something to do with a pig’s snout. My first self-published work was a fictional short story titled, The Frozen Moose. I was living in the far reaches of humanity where the weather frequented 0, volunteering for Welcome Home Warrior, now defunct, and helping at retreats for active duty and veteran families. That’s when a friend of mine committed suicide. Out of those experiences came the above story. I love researching, learning, and writing Women’s/Historical Fiction. Currently, I contribute a blog every month to RMFW.org. I enjoy any mammal, walking uphill, ATVing, learning, reading, taking naps, gardening, and church service.
