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 nourishes me as I spend the wealth of my time with Family and close Friends. Writing, mentoring, listening/dancing to different genres of music, and traveling are some of the activities I enjoy most!

Many people have asked about the origin of LifeWriting.com. While in grad school, I found myself constantly journaling about a few life-changing experiences. The journaling was extremely therapeutic and slowly evolved 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 designed a website to publish poetry. Readers shared how the poetry spoke to them.

The website was disabled for several years, but revived in 2018 with a new vision. Today, you will not only find poetry, but other creative writing mediums, as well as conversation platforms...literally and figuratively, making writing speak. 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! 😊
