GYPSIES IN THE CLOSET!

Gypsy Isle Publishing was created by writer/broadcaster Rebecca Black. Rebecca has worked in the communications industry for over twenty-five years, and has also kept busy writing fiction novels and screenplays - one of which, "Discovering Emma", was produced as a low-budget feature film in 1999.

Through the process of helping her mother publish two books, Rebecca discovered she had more than a passion for writing - she so enjoyed the experience of editing and preparing her mother's manuscripts for the printing press, she decided to do the same for herself and other authors struggling to be published. The result of her passion is Gypsy Isle Publishing, a company that provides a nurturing, supportive environment, encouraging emerging and established writers to follow their dreams.

The name "Gypsy Isle" combines two elements that are important to Rebecca Black. Her roots stretch across the Atlantic Ocean to England, where her maternal great-grandmother, Sarah Morton, was a proud Roma gypsy. Rebecca credits much of her own creative passions for  traveling, writing, and all things historical and spiritual, with her Gypsy heritage.                                            

And much like a gypsy herself, Rebecca spent many years  moving from place to place across Canada with her radio career, finally settling down in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada. Thus, she could not resist the urge to include her favourite "Isle" in the company name, as well.

As we welcome more and more authors into the fold, Gypsy Isle Publishing will offer readers a wide variety of titles to enjoy, including romances, historical fiction, and young adult novels.

To Rebecca, this picture by Island photographer Stacy McInnis symbolizes a gypsy cart, left near the shore at the end of a long journey. Rebecca feels her own Gypsy roots led her to Prince Edward Island, a beautiful place to call home.
