I began writing in 2002 with a memoir that was a finalist for the prestigious Oregon Book Award. Since then I've been writing most days in the morning for an hour or so and am currently working on book #10. It's just so fun. I'm a big reader of mysteries and thrillers and have written three of my own. I also enjoy exploring the relationships between men and women, and mothers and daughters.
I'm a former college professor of literature and writing who's been a freelance editor for the last 25 years. I am also a pastel and acrylic painter and I make art deco needlepoint pillows (www.jillkellycreative.com). I live in Portland, Oregon, with my four cats who do all the chores so I can be creative 24/7.
Becoming a Creative later in life has been the most amazing gift. And when the pandemic lockdown came, I started writing a poem every day to express my feelings and observations. At about the same time, I began taking photos of my neighborhood on my daily walks and posting them online. Both practices have been so wonderful that I've kept them up. Creative practices have endless variety, endless things to learn and try, so much satisfaction to be had in the doing. Marrying the Muse was one of the best choices I ever made.
