The first soulbond seen in hundreds of years...

The reemergence of alchemy and magic into a climate-ravaged future, trapped beneath authoritarian leadership

at the intersection of duty and desire.

Footprints in the desert sand

Rebecca writes... what?

Rebecca Dodson specializes in adult fiction, particularly in the romantasy and psychological thriller genres. Her modus operandi is to write what wants to be written --

​

(I can't do this. So many author websites have this third-person angle on the primary homepage, like we have some team writing amazing things on our behalf, but full disclosure: it's just me. Hi. I can't re-read this in the third person, again, so I'm reverting to first. 
 

Why bother mentioning it, you ask? Fair question. Fair.
(1) I've had some wine, (2) I fixate on and revisit things nobody else would probably think twice about, and (3) my overactive brain insists I address the weirdisms and show that I (3.a) notice them and (3.b) try to fix them. And now you know something else about me... probably more than one thing.

 

Let's carry on, shall we?)

​

I believe in letting complex characters tell me where they want to go. I enjoy being dragged along by a story that can't wait another second to be told.

​

But... romantasy and psychological thrillers? I write a entertaining range, including (but not limited to):

  • bantering humor

  • fan-yourself-romance

  • angsty, pining love

  • magical world-building

  • twisty, mindbending thrillers that leave the reader gasping for air.

​

My work is enjoyed by fans of fast paces, tongue-in-cheek snark, and general suffering. My writing style is characterized by deeply character-driven plots, immersive inner monologue and POVs, and a talent for crafting unexpected twists and romantic pairings overcoming anything in their path.
