Here to Create

Here to Create is a place for those who have always felt a deep need to imagine, to make, to create – but don’t always know how. I write about ways I explore my own creativity and offer suggestions for methods I have found useful.

About Me

I’ve been writing since I learned how to hold a pencil. I’m only 29, but that’s still about 24 years of writing experience. The best thing about writing, though, is that there’s always room for improvement. I graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in writing and literature, but I’ve struggled with incorporating my love of writing into my life. In the past few years, I’ve realized that since writing is a dream that just will not die, I need to pursue it whether or not I ever make any money from it.

Here to Create is my effort to make writing a daily part of my life, explore my views of writing and creativity, and get feedback by showing my work publicly. Creativity is the foundation of most of the important things in my life. The more I let my creativity run loose, the more fun things I find to try. I’m always exploring writing, of course, but I also write about photography, design, jewelry making, and incorporating a creative attitude into everyday life.
