33 weeks, 5 days pregnant
In the middle of the night, we woke up to Little Dog snorting and gasping in the bed with us. She had never done that before, so we bolted upright and soothed her until she stopped.
DARLING HUSBAND: I wonder what happened to her? That’s weird.
ME: Uh …
DARLING HUSBAND: What?
ME: Well, I was dreaming that I was sleeping on top of her, and she couldn’t breathe. And then suddenly I was awake, and she was gasping. So I think I may have crushed her for real.
DARLING HUSBAND: …
ME: Sorry, Little Dog.

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 11-year-old son and a nine-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time as a writer. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
