WHAT I'M UP TO
I CREATE COLORING BOOKS
I started my coloring book line just as something fun to do just to see if I could do it. To my surprise, I did it. Then, I thought, wouldn't it be fun to create coloring books for people of all ages, but instead of just creating a book with pretty pictures, to have it actually accomplish something.
To date, I have 12 or 13 coloring books and they all are inspiring, uplifting, informational or calming in some way. They were created to have you walk away feeling better than when you started. My pen name is Harmony Blossom because I thought it was not only fun to create under a different name but the name is also symbolic to me of growth.
As I am growing and blossoming as a person in harmony with my mind, body and soul, I hope to keep creating books that inspire people to do the same. I sell my coloring books on Amazon here, but I am also creating my own website: HarmonyBlossomBooks.com that will sell my books as well. I look forward to growing my brand and adding activity books and even written books to its list of offereings. HarmonyBlossomBooks.com should be launched by April 1, 2024, but you can go there if you're reading this before then and sign up to be a part of my community and be notified when we release new books and also to download a series of printable coloring pages that you can access right now. I hope you will decide to sign up and buy one of my coloring books. It would mean the world to me.
I AM A YOUTUBER
Well, kind of. I just created a few channels that I will be a content creator for:
youtube.com/@thejackiereid -> is my personal channel that I just created for my personal life. It will be a very casual channel where I'll be sharing pieces of my life with you. I'm usually quite private so this will be new for me. I love it if you were one of the first ones to describe, even though I haven't recorded my first video, yet...
youtube.com/@harmonyblossombooks -> will be the channel for my coloring books. The kind of content that you will find there will be around that. Don't worry, it won't be boring but it will be centered around that brand. I'm still brainstorming content that will be engaging for that channel so if you have any ideas, feel free to send them my way.
youtube.com/@beselfysh -> so, I'm building a personal care brand called BeSelfysh. The idea behind this brand is to help remind women that it is not selfish to put themselves first. Hence the spelling change. I changed to "I" in to a "Y" in the word selfysh to serve as that reminder. I would like to rethink and reshape what being selfysh really means. Being selfysh is about keeping your cup full so that you have something to pour from. My main target audience is women over 40, specifically women who are married and have children as well as other responsibilities. This brand hopefully will become a movement. I do have plans for course, printables, planners, journals, merch and more so stay tuned.
I LOVE WRITING
I am currently working on two books. I don't want to release too much information but I am hoping to add the title of author to my name starting later this year. I've been working hard and I can't wait to share what I am working on.
Ever since I was young, I kept journals (before journaling was a thing) becuase it was a healthy way for me to get my thoughts out. I didn't trust many people with my thoughts, feelings and secrets so it helped me feel like I was "sharing" with someone. I never really considered myself a writer until I started going back and reading some of what I wrote. I felt like could articulate very well on paper (much better than in person) because I am a rather shy and quiet person, unless I'm comfortable with you then its a whole other story lololol. I definitely plan on writing quite a few books in the future, so stay tuned.
It's gonna be a fun ride!
I LOVE CRAFTING
I'm learning a craft now that I hope will be another income stream for me and my family. I'm not sure where I will find the time, but I think that once these other entities are established, it will open up for me to finish learning this craft and then I can share it with all of you.
I definitely don't know how I'm going to get it all done, I just know that I will. I'm determined to.
So you see, there's much to see and do and I wanted a place on the internet where I feel like I have a place for people to come to learn about me and what I am up to. Thanks for being here.
