So, the thing about me and art supplies …

I admit it:

I have a problem. My name is Sherri Winston and for years I’ve had a terrible addiction. It’s …art supplies!

Colored pencils, watercolor pencils, ink pens, ink pads, ink quills, markers, greaphite, sketchbooks, watercolor paper–somebody help me!

As you may know, I happen to be an author. I take authoring very seriously. I love storytelling and visualizing a world, situation or character and navigating their journey, That’s my thing.

But for as long as I can remember, art has been my thing, too. I love expressing myself with drawings. I dream of one day selling art prints and maybe even one day original works. But year after year I acquire so many art materials and the sheer volume of possibilities paralyzes me.

Then I get caught up up the looping thought process of “what kind of artist am I?”

Ooo, baybeee! I’ve got it bad.

Whether you’re an aspiring writer, artist, poet or any other creator looking for a boost to get started, finding your tribe is essential. Come join me as I unravel my publishing process and hopefully reveal nuggets of wisdom and insight that might encourage someone else to take the next step in their journey.

And have mercy, perhaps I can stop treating my art supplies like they are so precious and actually start using them. Fingers crossed.

Come on, y’all. We can do this!
