Artist. Author. Advocate.

There is hope after trauma. Healing is possible–even happiness.

Hello! Thank you for stopping by my page. I am a North Carolina artist and writer. My passion is collaborating with other writers and artists who are in the process of telling their stories and shaping their work for an audience. Check out the tab “The Artist Corner” to link to other fantastic people who might inspire you.

My own creative work at this point is a little greeting card enterprise (still in the works!)– stick art, doodles, and innocent wit at its finest! You may also find an occasional blog post on the theme of wellness, as I’m a retired massage therapist who wholeheartedly believes that a healthy mind-body-spirit connection provides the foundation for a fulfilling life.

Life isn’t all bubbles and rainbows. Sometimes it just plain sucks. Check out my “Book” tab for a link to my personal memoir– my recovery story from a boat load of trauma and the mental health challenges that often accompany it.

Thank you again for stopping by. I love to receive emails! Please reach out to say hello or if you’re looking for a fellow artist to bounce ideas off of. I’m your Gal!

XOXO,

Alyssa
