Rekindling America’s Appreciation of Photography

Author Rebecca Wells Phillips & Rachel Bleu

I am Rebecca Wells Phillips, an Asheville author with the pen names of Rachel Bleu and Boo Black. I took this selfie in a hotel room in Black Mountain, North Carolina. I wrote Hurricane Helene Resiliency After the Storm well after this photo, so it sparked some good memories for me and I wanted to share it with you. We will never forget what we’ve endured in Western North Carolina.
