Creative Writing
I have developed a lot of different pieces of writing over the years and I’m so glad to be able to share it with you here! Feel free to take a look at any of my works and I hope you find them enjoyable!

Useless
To Nuray’s disappointment, the broken bow of the ship didn’t have any more secret surprises. “Perhaps Mini is having better luck,” she muttered to herself. She felt her pack for the three canisters of spoils they discovered below deck. It was too bad that compass wasn’t with them. Nuray swiveled her head to the waterContinue reading “Useless”

Hippo Chat
If you don’t know by now, I work at my local zoo with a variety of different species. One of which is the hippopotamus. One of our tasks as keepers is to give chats about our animals. Basically, you stand in front of your exhibit for about ten minutes talking about your animals. We giveContinue reading “Hippo Chat”
What’s Your Focus?
I would like to share a curious thought that I’ve been carrying for a while. It comes from last week. I had the opportunity to spend a couple days with my extended family at the lake. We had a lot of fun. Did a lot of swimming, played a lot of games, I got toContinue reading “What’s Your Focus?”

Writer’s Getaway
Step out on a smooth deck, warmed by the sunBreath in the fresh, lake airThe water glistens in the soft morning lightAnd a breeze teases the trees on the shoreNot a motion in sight in this peaceful lake lifeThe world wakes up slowlyYou sit in your chair with coffee in handand smile at a tranquilContinue reading “Writer’s Getaway”
On the Bookshelf
Here’s a question for you. What’s on your bookshelf? I mean, besides the books? If you just have books, what kind are they? Or maybe you don’t even have books on your bookshelf? What do you think what’s on your bookshelf says about you? I have a tall and a short bookshelf in my room.Continue reading “On the Bookshelf”
Water
Life’s description, liquid running cold water, A wet field of play to splash away the day, Cold running water A source of energy a source of refreshment, All life appreciates, Cold running water It crashes, it screams, racing to sea In its depths brings the crushing darkness Cold running water To quench, to extinguish, ToContinue reading “Water”
Everyone has those random thoughts you have throughout the day. Something might be stuck on your chest that you just can’t shake off. Writing helps me shake things off and maybe checking out these random thoughts might help you? Sometimes, we don’t realize that other people can think or feel the same way about a topic that we might think is off the wall.

“I Can’t Believe I Did That”
Have you ever made a simple mistake that you just can’t shake? One of those: “wow, I can’t believe I did that,” moments that takes residence in the back of your mind and won’t let you forget it? More likely than not, we’ve all been there. I work at a zoo and lately, I’ve beenContinue reading ““I Can’t Believe I Did That””

Picture of You
I’m an artist. Those of you who follow my blog, you know this. I don’t sell any of my work, but I do like to display it. My bedroom walls are covered with artwork that I’ve done whether drawn with pencil, pieced together with paper, done with pastel, or built from wood. I’ve even startedContinue reading “Picture of You”

About Me
Hey, I’m Nikki! I am a nerdy geek who has a passion for writing, drawing, painting, and many other art media. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been crafting stories in my head whether they were original works or fanfictions. Over ten years ago, I started writing a novel and developing my skills as a writer, and, now, that novel is near completion! I do consider myself a Christian writer, but most of my stories are all fantasy and sci-fi based. Read more...
