Introducing myself

[A Willing Pen]

Hi, I’m Elyse. I have been writing for several years, mainly articles and blogs. I have a creative writing degree and am now pursing a masters in positive psychology. My current goal is to produce and publish children’s books based on positive psychology. Other than writing, I run a business with my family and hope I will have time to pursue what I love to do.

Hi, Elyse. My name isn’t Brocha, ‘cuz I’m shy. Charmed to make your acquaintance!

There’s such a thing as a creative writing degree? I’m intrigued.

[A Willing Pen]

Yes, there is. I did some of it on campus, but mostly online.

It’s so wonderful to meet you, Elyse! So glad you’re here on Masterpiece! It sounds like you have so much knowledge, experience, and creativity to share and I am sure that you will get inspiration and support from the wonderful women here. Positive psychology is a fascinating, new-ish field and writing a kids’ book based on its principles sounds like an amazing project that would be most welcome. Will you gear it towards the general public or cater to the frum community–or two versions?

[A Willing Pen]

The books I’m publishing now cater to the general public.

Any suggestions for those of us who’d love to start blogging?
