Rebecca Schenk grew up on a farm in Ontario, Canada. That is where her love of cats started. She also had a couple of very special dogs over the course of her life, and she loves animals. Some of her favourite places are small lakeside towns. And many years ago, she embarked on a life-changing spiritual journey. Through meditation, continual learning, and spiritual practice, she developed her intuitive and spiritual gifts. During this time, inspiration struck her. And Secrets at Lake Talisa was born. It took writing courses and much heartfelt dedication to develop and polish her novel to the point of sharing it with readers. She now has a passion for inspired writing and loves delving into the stories and messages that flow from it. She continues to write and currently lives in the Niagara area.
