BIO

Kandy Christensen lives in Chicago, IL with a free-roam bunny named Sweetie. She grew up, and has lived in the Midwest most of her life, except for a year spent living in Iraq doing Human Rights work. Currently she is a Life Coach using her strong sense of empathy for good. Kandy is a crafter who loves textiles, every personality test she's ever taken says she is a knowledge seeker (a bit of a magpie really), and sometimes she carries a vintage camera with her. Her ethos is shaped by the mantra make do and mend, which she carries into her crafting. She’s been avoiding sitting down and writing a book, although she has written a lot of blog posts.


WHAT I MAKE

I'm interested in writing.


INSPIRED BY

Textiles, travel, art, crafters and makers, nature, the people in my life, books (I read a lot!) and healing.


EXPLORING:

I've been wanting to write a fictionalized memoir for a long time. Or at least to write some short stories. I haven't written fiction for many years.
