A Home for Creating is a private space dedicated to writing, creating, and sharing online imperfectly — like a paywalled newsletter, but reshaped into a digital world
</aside>
Ever since leaving social media in 2021, I craved an online space of my very own — one I actually wanted to hang out in and pour my creative-self into.
I was tired of worrying about whether or not my writing style was too lengthy and meandering, if reaching a certain amount of likes on a post would equal more workshop sign ups, or how to take a photo that the algorithm would approve of.
Instead, I wanted to absorb, create, and share art in a way that brought me joy: documenting a pottery practice I shared with my mom, creating and sharing videos of my digital world building process, reading five books at once and wanting to talk about each of them, or experimenting with writing fiction because why not.
The solution: build my own digital world (using Notion).
Now, during periods of anxiety, illness, or overwhelm, I have an anchor back to my creative-self.
A reminder that stepping away doesn’t have to mean falling behind or abandoning everything, but permission to adapt to life’s inevitable fluctuations.
A Home for Creating, 2+ years later, continues to shape itself into a living archive of my creative life: an ever-evolving digital world designed to support and inspire how I choose to be in-process with my creative practices.
A place that invites me to be me, no strings attached.
And I would be thrilled to have you join.
Chloe (:

What You Can Expect
<aside>
A Home for Creating might be for you if…
- If you’ve ever found comfort in building and tending to your own digital world or garden, or have longed to create one for yourself…
- If you have no way of quickly answering the question, “what do you do?” since what you do doesn’t fit into a tidy little 2-minute response…
- If you enjoy the process of wandering down internet rabbit holes without needing to know where you’re going or why…
- If you’re neurodivergent or chronically ill and have always had a non-linear approach your creative life or small business, preferring to create and share things at your own pace and in your own way
- If you enjoy writing by hand, reading physical books, or creating something tangible, just as much as you enjoy obsessing over the layout of your website’s homepage…
- If you feel like you have to become someone else in order to build a brand, business, or personal presence on social media…

And if not…
If you’re looking for self-paced courses, step-by-step tutorials, scheduled calls, or live workshops on how to use Notion, this likely isn’t the place for you.
While I do offer tidbits of my experience with building digital worlds using Notion, there are many folks (actual Notion experts) that can offer more “how-to” specific services (email me if you are looking for recommendations).
A Home for Creating meanders down rabbit holes, gets stuck in the muck for a while, and rushes forward all at once. It’s a reflection of my inner landscape and a promise to myself that here, in this self-built digital world of my dreams, ****the thing that propels me forward will always be my curiosity.
A Home for Creating isn’t mean’t to fix or solve or figure any one thing out, it’s a space for reflecting, observing, creating, sharing, and tending to something over time because you want to — because the act of doing so is rewarding enough.

Should you choose to become a member, I can offer you…
- An archive of 2+ years worth of musings and creative meanderings

“I'm a new subscriber, but so far I'm loving being a part of your digital world. I feel inspired and like I can finally get my own in order. Also, I love hearing about your process, your frustrations, because I share a lot of them. It makes me not feel so alone. Thank you!” — Margaret

“The most impactful experience for me has been the creative diaries. As someone who is a big ideator and thinker, I often don't feel that I am able to empty myself or see progress. The framework you introduced came at a time when a personal mantra of mine, "allow the process to change you," is important in my journey. The way you've created Notion as an organism rather than a stagnant template has opened up new ways of seeing Notion and my own process.” — Monica
