Mommy confession …

I am pretty sure Baby Boy’s favourite show is MTV’s Teen Mom.

I love it, and we watch it together every week. He stares at the screen, totally fascinated. I tell myself it’s because he likes to look at the other babies, especially Bentley — who is a cool older boy, in his eyes. But I suspect he also likes Macy (one of the teen moms).

Let’s look on the bright side: we are sharing interests!

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.)
