Welcome to my creative space.

My name is Carla and I’m here to practice being curious, paying attention, and letting go of perfectionism through the art and craft of writing.

I also throw in a few collages and photography because those are other art forms I enjoy. And sometimes words can’t solve the problems that words created.

You can discover more about the beginnings of my creative journey in this post .

I welcome constructive feedback. Also let me know what topics you’re curious about. I’m always looking for ideas to think and write about!

Thank you to the creative friends in my life and mentors from afar: Natalie Goldberg, Elizabeth Gilbert, Cheryl Strayed, Oren Sofer, and Forrest Kinney. You inspire and encourage me to explore, keep practicing, let it be easy, and focus on what matters most.
