My Writing
At eight years old, after a mortifying experience and a disappointing attempt at writing fiction, I decided I wanted to write true stories. I learned the term “creative nonfiction” years later. I love writing about seemingly ordinary, everyday things and revealing their magic.
Art Portfolio
Hand drawn pen-and-ink illustrations. Digital drawings. And hand carved block prints. From tiny original drawings to stickers, magnets, greeting cards, and block-printed kitchen towels and market bags…I work with all of these different forms.
“Write your life. No matter how young or old. Even if you feel like you’re not interesting enough. Do it. Believe me you are. Your life is in fact twisted and beautiful and you’ll find that as you peel back the layers, the unexpected side effect is it feels wonderful to be known. Even if it’s just by you.”
Brandi Carlile, Broken Horses: a memoir
<–I offer writing coaching on a limited basis if you’d like a “Reader’s Response” on a creative nonfiction/memoir project. Like Ms. Carlile says here, I think everyone has an important story to tell.
