The Founder & Story of LifeWriting.com

---

Hi! I'm Chris Jones, an Air Force veteran from Waynesboro, GA (Burke County), now living in Maryland. My Faith keeps me nourished as I spend the bulk of my time with Family and close Friends. Writing, mentoring, listening and dancing to different genres of music, and traveling are some of the activities I enjoy!

Many people have asked about the origin of LifeWriting.com. Well, I found myself journaling about a few life-changing experiences on the daily while in graduate school. The journaling was extremely therapeutic and slowly transformed into creative writing. One night, the words "life" and "writing" came to me in a dream. I researched the words only to find the domain name, "lifewriting.com" was for sale! I purchased it, and initially, designed a website around poetry. Readers began to tell me how the poetry spoke to them.   

The website was disabled for several years, but revived in 2018 with a new vision. Today, you will find a wealth of creative mediums in the form of writing, discussion, and others...literally and figuratively, making writing speak. Most are found here, but you will soon find some on the Facebook page and YouTube channel that offer platforms for discussion about a particular writing. The mediums to come will allow even more opportunities to put a creative spin on the art of life writing!! I look forward to sharing in this experience with you! 😊
