Children’s Author and Creativity Facilitator Jennifer Phillips
Thanks for visiting! I have a new book coming out in January 2027, plus several other projects in development or the submission process.
I’m all about helping kids discover who they are, what they’re capable of and how they can fit in the world, no matter what their current circumstances. That includes tackling tough topics and using lively plain talk to support children and youth who can feel excluded from the reading experience. More on my About page!
I also want to help others make time and connections to everyday creative practices in all forms. Visit my blog page and creativity resources page to find inspiration, get unstuck and help make our world a better place.
Less is More: Constraints Encourage Creativity
There’s a quote out there in the Internet world that I come back to periodically: Creativity is subtraction. It’s a useful concept for my writing, work and everyday life.
The Quiet, Personal Rewards of Everyday Creativity
I’m a big champion of creativity and write about it often. Let’s explore the idea that everyday creativity looks like any activity that is new and useful without recognition needed from society.
How Did the Year Go for Your Creativity?
As we tend to do at year’s end, I’m taking stock of how things went. That includes how I’m feeling about being able to embrace everyday creativity.
Join my (occasional) newsletter to get updates about my books and techniques/resources to help with your own writing and creative inspiration. I'll also send you my Finding Time guide (with fillable worksheet) to help with incorporating writing or other creative adventures into your life!
