A little about me 

I'm a dreamer and a writer and in the brief moments I have to marry the two I write for children. Even before being inspired by my three little women I was writing poems, picture books and all manner of stories.

A blog worth reading! 

Writely Applied is a vision inspired by the incredible journalist, Nellie Bly who said “Energy rightly applied and directed will accomplish anything.”

Writely Applied is our place to be refreshed, inspired and motivated. It is a creative place for creative people. There is no sign on the door that says only writers need apply. It is open to everyone, wherever you are when you are writing, thinking about writing or reading about writing.
