That’s really how it all came about. One thing lead to another, and I just starting ordering more and more...and then began creating on a larger scale. As for the writing, I have written from a young age. I entered many contests and won many as well. I have been published many times.
Casa London: Was it fiction?
Wendy: What I write now, is mostly just little shorts. The first contest I actually ever won was when I was in grade one. From there, I wrote short stories, speeches and poems. As I started getting older I began writing even more, took courses and then as I was making jewellery pieces , I would often find it entertaining to make stories to go along with the creations. Fiction and non fiction. I love writing both.
Casa London: That is quite a collection you have here! *pointing to the bookshelves* What sort of books inspired the stories that you write?
Wendy: The stories I write are not actually based on anything I have read. The stories are inspired by something that makes me happy, or even something that is bothering me in the world. I never really set out to "write like this person", or "I want to be like that person". It is all me, and sometimes there is no rhyme nor is there reason to any of it to be honest. That is what makes it fun to do. Some of them are just little love stories, and some of them are more inspirational, about being courageous for instance.
