Meet R. K. Sampson

Hi, I’m Rebecca! My fantasy novels are known for their unique love stories and takes on destiny. My books have hit the Amazon and Barnes & Noble bestseller lists multiple times since release.

When I’m not writing, I’m reading (of course), scrapbooking, taking long walks, and being a homebody with my family in Miami, FL.

The first story I remember writing was about a “white knight” coming to save me on a Pegasus… I was in first grade. Yet, I didn’t write fiction regularly until after I graduated college. Learn more about my history as writer, including the poetry I published about my ex boyfriend in high school, on my about page.

Presenting, the project that rose from the dead while I was avoiding my deadlines! Your Only Fating, the guidebook that exists within the Fated Tales series, by an Ashkadance author named Glenn Writer, will soon be available to download on my website! Coming June 16th to my website, enjoy the in-universe explanations of the fating, its history, and Q&A sent in by teens across Mutrien. This guidebook is something gifted to most teenagers in the world as they approach their adulthood. Nearly all of the main characters have read this book or been exposed to it. One thing I tried to weave into the story was how this insta-love system works for different kinds of people, but not all scenarios come up naturally in the books, so I’m writing it all down here! Or, Glenn Writer is 😉 I initially started this project two years ago, but then ran away to do other things with my ADHD brain. I’m excited to finish it and share it with you soon, free for all newsletter subscribers. More details on how to join and claim your copy will be available in the coming days. Would you read a book within a book? 👀 🔖 Fantasy author - instalove - love at first sight - fated mates - YA fantasy
Book one, Ember Dragon Daughter, is free for a limited time. Start reading the Fated Tales series, it’s complete so no waiting 💞 Ember Dragon Daughter is a YA fantasy with some dystopian influences in book one. It has some lead up but no spice, if that is something you are looking for in your books. Happy reading!
Dear Princess Celestia, *cough* Sorry, wrong fandom. Dear Future Rebecca, Please remember the pain that is writing a prophecy riddled novel before you start your next project. Sincerely, Present Rebecca, Twilight Sparkle ✨💜 - I am back on track with this project, finish the last six chapters and then a quick read through. Once that is complete, I’ll be editing, formatting, and planning the release. While nothing I’ve done so far with this book has gone to plan (silly me), there is so much passion and complexity in this book that I’m ecstatic to share with you. Stay tuned for more updates. I have some planned sneak peeks to share. What have you been up to this May? #fantasybookseries #romantasybooks
Update on The Courting of Kingdoms: I will be cancelling the retail preorders for TCOK, which I had been aiming to come out in June. I still hope to have it out this Summer. Preorders will be still be up on my website but will soon be updated to have an undefined date. The book is nearly complete, but I was doing a final pass to integrate some additional plot changes, and with my current load the timeline kept expanding. It was a tight deadline, but I thought I could possibly still make June, however there is a private family matter that needs my attention. I wish I could say this delay was for something cool, but instead we’re just all really sad. Thank you for your understanding. I will be offline for a while.
