"The Phoenix Soul is a fiercely indie digital magazine and community, designed to honor our tender truths. Amanda Fall is the creator, editor, and chief gatherer of good. Each issue of the digital magazine (PDF instant download) features 60 vibrant full-color pages for only $6."

The Phoenix Soul magazine features heartpounding art, gaspworthy poetry, brave essays, intimate interviews (including our signature Truth Tribe interview), evocative creative prompts, & more. Single issues are available for purchase ($6), as well as subscription services (at a discounted rate). "

"Every issue explores a different soul-centered theme designed to encourage hope and healing in our everyday lives, honoring both our deep ache and our wild joy.

We are raw and real. Grit and grace. Truth-speakers, love-believers, heart-on-our-sleevers.

We encourage vulnerability, authentic connection, and intentional living."

"WE LOVE YOUR REBEL HEART. YOUR MISFIT DREAMS. YOUR WILD PHOENIX SOUL!"

I really really hope that you'll check it out.
I am featured with one of my favorite all-time pieces of last year,
one that the lovely Amanda and I agree speaks loud and clear on the topic of Wild Joy.
And I am interviewed in the "Grit & Grace" section as well where I chat briefly about
where I find my own Wild Joy, what inhibits it and how I get back to it when waylaided.

Thanks SO much for including me in this issue Amanda, it's been an honor once again XO

Artful Blogging

I am over the moon

and the sun

and the stars...

I am beyond cloud 9

past seventh heaven!

because I and my beloved blog are featured in the

 

Winter 2017 issue of

Artful Blogging

 

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....

 

 

I have loved and admired this magazine for years and years and have stacks of them in my studio.

I believe in and love my blog so much.  I put a lot of effort & time into it and it just

finally felt like time to give it the chance to be seen...

so I submitted and I heard back with a positive answer before I knew it.

This is one of my artistic dreams and goals come true...

In bright, thick glossy paper & beautiful colour

and it's on stands today (or available online).

It's SIX whole wonderful pages just for me.

I adore how they arranged it all, I love each photo they chose.

The editor was so so lovely to work with (and patient)...Thanks Danielle XO

 

and well I just couldn't be happier right now

and I really really hope you guys will rush out and pick up a copy.

 

WOOOOOHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ha ha!

I am insanely excited.

 

The lovely editor of Coloured Pencil magazine asked tiny little me

if I would like to be featured in their awesome publication.

 

 

and not only is it a feature about me & my coloured pencil work

but about the bunnies, our recent adoption from the shelter and how they inspire the work that I do.

 

It's suppose to be in the Spring edition.  Ahhhhh!!!

This is what I was preparing last week, getting the article & images ready.

I just had to tell you!
