Bio Sketch
Rachel Sutcliffe had suffered from a serious immune disorder for over 16 years; throughout this time writing had been her therapy, and it kept her from going insane! She was an active member of the British Haiku Society and has been published in various journals including Prune Juice, Failed Haiku and Hedgerow.
Using few words, Rachel's shasei haiku paints a vivid picture infused with symbolic significance.
