You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have. ~MAYA ANGELOU
Welcome to my Creative Journal. Here is where I let my creative musings and ideas show themselves in the light, even if they are nothing more than saplings that never mature into the tallest of trees. Creativity is like breathing. It is necessary. Here is where I simply create and allow myself to grow creatively.
Word-weaving, writing, is a cathartic practice that I love to share. Those found here are pieces that I have a special place in my heart, those that I desire to share the most. Follow the Link to some of my favorite written works.
Words are not the only medium that I choose to create, although it is my first love. Visual art is a beautiful form of creative expression and storytelling, especially when I am doing character development. Follow the Link to see some of my WIP’s as well as finished pieces and drawings of characters.
Having a regular practice of creative writing helps to clear out the cobwebs that could potentially tangle up novels and other longer bodies of work. Here, in this part of my creative journal, are some of the voices that deserved a place in the imaginations of others, even if their story didn’t warrant thousands of words to tell. Follow the Link and read along.
