A glimpse of Raquel in her own words
Hello, I’m Raquel Zepeda Fitzgerald. I was born in El Paso, Texas, the year; I’ll never tell! I am of Mexican-American heritage, with a splash of Irish on my mother’s side. My passion is entertaining people.
When I was just a child living on French Place, my neighborhood friends and I would put on shows to entertain our parents. We played cartoons on the movie projector I got from selling seeds and then we’d have the talent show. Song and dance is an innate talent for me. I studied violin when I was in the third grade and have always loved music. I learned that I was more of a vocalist than a violinist. I was also the family clown and loved to make my parents, brothers and sisters laugh.
In 1987 I had a sort of calling to entertain people through a new medium, writing. That year, I started writing The Eye of Osiris. People at work and my neighbors at home were in love with the story and I eventually published it in 2005. I know, it took a long, long time!
Sometimes I feel as though I’ve lived a million lives. My creative endeavors are all over the map: music , clothing design, cosmetics, fragrance, and writing (including greeting cards). Along the way, I have also worked as a CEO for a cosmetics line I created, and legal assistant/paralegal for many years. No doubt, this is penance for all the fun I’ve had in my life.
I sincerely hope you enjoy the stories. If you would like to contact me, please send an email to: info@raquelzepedafitzgerald.com.
