Creative Grace
With this newsletter’s one-year anniversary happening this month, I’ve been reflecting on my past newsletter, Creative Grace. I always wanted to write a Letter from the Editor so I created a digital magazine. I followed an editorial style I’ve always preferred in newspapers and my favorite magazines.
I was the sole writer, editor, and creative director, funneling readers to my blog for longer-form articles related to each seasonal theme (this was a quarterly newsletter). It was visually pretty and well-received.
Emily Grace is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
It gave me great practice in curating words, images, and graphics in an eye-pleasing, mind-digestible way, around a theme that aligned with the earthly seasons.
Then I found out I was pregnant while traveling the country designing events, teaching at a local university, and considering a new design opportunity closer to home with benefits for the incoming kiddo. I’m just now realizing — wow! this project really fell by the wayside. Ha.
Here she is, in all her archived glory. Forgotten, but not gone. Maybe it’s a seed for another evolution, maybe it was just a fun project for what it was. Either way, I’m proud of it:
