What's a creative studio? Mostly, it means I don't do just one thing (that would bore me). Mother Wit encompasses copywriting, graphic design, and creative consultation.

The old-fashioned phrase "mother wit" means "common sense." My business has been driven by its name since I started it in 1983. Mother Wit offers innovative solutions to communication challenges — on deadline, at a reasonable cost.

But Mother Wit comprises a wide range of other creative endeavors, the activities that feed my soul and keep my mind flexible — poetry, short stories, essays, songs, paper collages, photography, origami, and tinkering with this website. And, after many years of leading workshops, I am particularly gratified that my students produce their own vivid writing in many forms.
