WHAT’S UP?
I’M RE(BECCA)! POET/WRITER.
My name is ReBecca but everyone calls me Becca (which I prefer!) This is why I capitalize the B in my name on all of my writing pieces but also because it looks nice and symmetrical with my last name being DeFazio! I am a 28-year-old poet/writer who is obsessed with coffee, reading, and writing poetry/fiction! Writing has always been my passion; I started writing when I was about 8 years old (at least from what I remember) and I’ve really never stopped. I have made writing my way of escaping, coping, dreaming, and sharing my experiences.
I have a bachelor’s degree in creative writing (poetry) and someday I would love to go back to school for my master’s degree at someplace amazing like Sarah Lawrence but for now I am so happy to be able to get the chance to write anything I’d like from home while raising my three kids and spending time with my husband and dog!
I write about a lot of different topics, such as:
- trauma
- healing
- mental health
- self-care
- love
- motherhood
- etc.
I like to say that I just write from my heart which I know is cliché but it’s true.
I’ve been writing poetry and fiction since I was a little girl, and, now that I’m all grown up, I try to use writing to cope with my anxiety and general life stress. My mission is to share open and honest poetry that is inclusive and helps spread awareness on topics that deserve more time in the light of day such as mental health, self-care, and the hardships that go along with being a mother/wife/female in this world.
I’m eternally grateful for all the love and support I receive through the online writing communities I’m apart of! Thank you so much for following me along on this journey!
