==Her Name==
In 2007, she wrote: "My pseud 'Rachael Sabotini' is a riff off of Raphael Sabatini, the author of Scarmouche, Captain Blood, and many other swashbuckling novels, and my lj name 'WickedWords' is both a book about Curses, Insults, Put-Downs, and Other Formerly Unprintable Terms and a line of erotica novels I'll leave you to guess which one I pulled off the shelf when I was trying to figure out a name for my lj. Both names seem too long for email, so I usually go by rache." Team Angst McShep Match Interview with Rachael Sabotini 
In 2000, she was the winner of a Citizens Against Bad Slash Tongue-in-Cheek Award: "I present this award to Rachael Sabotini, one of my favorite Sentinel writers, who also wins the award for the person who has her name mispelled ironic misspelling the most."
