Not Me Monday: Birthday gluttony edition

Posted on August 15, 2011 by heatherlauraclarke

While celebrating my twenty-muffle-muffle birthday this weekend, I definitely did not indulge in two full days of eating whatever the hell I wanted
Like McDonalds breakfast …
… and a Teen burger …
… and whipped-cream-and-cookie dessert …
… and fried potatoes …
… and dino-shaped nuggets …
And, of course, I do not feel supremely ill/stuffed/bloated now
I would also never admit it was totally awesome

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.)
