Author: Kari Lynn M
Hey there! I'm Kari, a self-published author/independent artist/amateur cake decorator/freelance writer and creator with a dream. The dream of sharing stories with as many people I can possibly reach... and having an abundant supply of white chocolate truffles.
And that's pretty much me!
Are my poetry juices running out?!?!?!
Uh oh. So, lately I've been noticing something in my writing habits. ... I'M NOT WRITING POEMS ANYMORE. I mean, I feel like this should be a bad thing... right? I was going so strong with it for so long, and I was learning so much from my writing both about myself and poetry itself. …
A very short n’ cute poem called ‘Sleep’.
Yeah, I wrote a poem about sleeping. And it's very short and I wrote it while I was actually falling asleep one night, haha. So... it's called "Sleep", and here it is! Don't think. Just sleep. Let dreams Bring peace. At least there I'm free. And only there I am me. So let me go …
Need some inspo?
Ugh, I know I do. So... today, I decided to look around the internet and compile a big ol' list of inspiration starters for my fellow writers out there to turn to if and when you may need it. So... let's just get to it! Need some inspo? Go to an art exhibit. Exercise. Travel. …
HOW MANY WAYS CAN ONE EAT RAVIOLI?
You read correctly! So, I was sitting at the kitchen bar (which was covered in unopened junk mail, used coffee cups, and God knows how many crumbs and leftover food particles), eating a good old fashioned can of ravioli made by Mr. Chef Boyardee himself (yeah, right...), and... then I got to thinking, how many …

Perfection: Poems vs. Stories
Here's something to think a bit about. The words of your poems are perfect before you physically write them; those of your stories are perfected after they've been written. Yes, I came up with that... haha. But, seriously, think about it. When you decide to sit down and write a poem (or rather don't decide …
Poem Preview… My Words
Okay y'all, so I'm back with another one of these poem previews from Holding onto Stars over on Wattpad! This one I really wanted to post here on my blog, too, because I think it's very writer-relatable. And... that's what our community here is all about! So, anyway, here it is. It's a little poem …
It’s been 6 months…
...since I self-published my first ebook, Cartoon! (Okay, really not that long... but that's the scene I first thought of, haha.) And yes, it's still available for download, and yes, it's still completely free! So, for the longest time after I first published it, I grew really tired and sort of annoyed with doing self-promotion …
“The person who originated or gave existence to anything.”
Hey guys, welcome back! And today I'd like to discuss with y'all... what really defines an author. So, to answer this probably very vague question, I first visited my go-to info website, Wikipedia. And, here's what good ol' Wiki had to say about the definition of an author... An author is narrowly defined as the …
