ⓘ About Paulette Kennedy
Daphne Du Maurier is Paulette’s idol, so all of Daphne’s work is influential over Paulette’s own, with “My Cousin Rachel” being her favorite out of anything Daphne wrote. During her free time, Paulette enjoys finding unique vintage treasures at flea markets and thrift stores, tending to her garden, and knitting. She also collects antique books, and hardcovers that have an heirloom feel to them. Paulette has worn a lot of hats and worked so many different jobs through the years. She has been a dancer/dance instructor, a professional photographer, and a hairstylist. But being a writer is her dream career, something she is glad she can dedicate her time to doing full time. When Paulette was in the third grade, she concocted this elaborate lie that she owned fifty horses.
