Early life[edit]
Rebecca Maye Holiday spent most of her childhood on a rural Canadian Forces base, living as a military brat until her family resettled in Nova Scotia. Rebecca Maye graduated with high honours from Sackville High School, then obtained a diploma in Library Information Technology from the Nova Scotia Community College in 2018, then was accepted to Dalhousie University and University of King's College as an undergraduate student. She was the first student on record to apply for a Major in Law, Justice and Society and a Minor in Esoteric and Occult Traditions; the latter Minor was studied mostly through King's College under various occult-related classes taught by Dr. Kyle Fraser, a professor and researcher who worked at the institution.[1][2]
Published works[edit]
Most of Rebecca Maye's published works are stored by Library and Archives Canada and registered with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, while being commercially sold under the imprint Sea Holly Books. Rebecca Maye's writing is known for being fairly graphic in nature, addressing controversial topics including domestic violence, child abuse in Canada's residential schools, the 2020 Nova Scotia attacks, and the Murder of Tammy Homolka. Despite this dark thematic material, Rebecca Maye's books often feature bright pop colours on their outer covers, with cheerful cartoon characters or peaceful scenic images.[3]
