Welcome!

This blog was born out of my desire to bring together in one place all of my creative outlets. I’m a busy homeschool mom to two kids who tries to carve out time for my creative pursuits.

My hope is that WriteCookCreate will inspire other moms to find their creative passion and pursue it well, in tandem with their other responsibilities. I’m still working on that, which is what this blog is about!

~ Claire
