This buxom brunette enjoys crisp autumn days, early morning cups of coffee, and the beauty of filling a blank page with words. I’m a make-up hoarder and stress-baker. I drink copious amounts of tea. I love to sing, but only to myself. I color-code everything possible.

I am a movie dork, grammar geek, and music addict. I adore stringing words together to tell stories. I have a soft spot for fairy tales. I believe in self-motivation and self-fulfilling prophecies. Some of my favorite things include brilliant colors, robust words, spicy Thai and Indian food, green city parks, and rainy afternoons. I invite you to connect with me on Twitter @cloverdew.

If you’d like to get to know me more in-depth, you can start by reading 11 Things about me, a few details about the story of my life, or about the day I wrote over 5,000 words of fiction in one sitting. I’ve chronicled my gratitude and wonder in Love A La Carte, a feature about the best things in life. I also wrote a manifesto for this blog and life in general.
