Rebecca
Rand Kirshner
Hooray for RRK, one of the Buffyverse's extremely talented writers.
At Tabula Rasa, we love Rebecca because she gave us the
episode from which we took our name. (It's also the episode
that spawned Giles/Anya shippers!)
We'd really like to adopt her as our Patron Saint, if she'll have
us.
In Season 6, she also wrote the heartrending Hells
Bells.
In Season 5, Rebecca wrote
- 5.04 Out of My Mind (This is the episode where we find out that
Spike is in love with Buffy!)
- 5.09 Listening to Fear
- 5.19 Tough Love
Joss is just such a master of storytelling. Every
time I sit in there and am going, 'It could go this way, or it could
go that way,' Joss will come in like a carpenter and put the two
things together and you go, 'That's a well-made chair. I will now
sit in it.'
(RRK, quoted in Buffy magazine)
Rebecca herself posted at the Bronze
Beta just after Tabula Rasa aired - November

According to an interview in Buffy magazine, Rebecca wrote a lot
as a child. She likes to take long baths while writing, but sometimes
ties herself into her chair to force herself to write. She likes
working with hard copy.
At some point in the past, she worked as a coverage writer. (IE,
she did PR work)
We found some on-line interviews with Rebecca. We'd love to do
our own, Rebecca - if you read this please get
in touch!!!
Rebecca also wrote (with Mira Friedmann) the story "Sonnenblume"
in the Tales of the Slayers graphic novel
