About

Rachel Tonks Hill wanted to be either a doctor or a writer when they grew up. They graduated from their PhD in 2016 and published their debut novel, On the Rise, in 2018. Despite achieving both these lifelong dreams, they show no signs of growing up.

Tonks is a queer, non-binary writer with ADHD, depression and anxiety. Their writing is influenced by their lived experiences and whatever has captured their interest this week.

When not writing, the wild Tonks can be found painting, reading fanfiction or spinning fire around their head.

A recent transplant from England, they live in Glasgow with their partners and a very noisy dog.
