Welcome

A fresh look and changes I’m excited to share with you. Welcome to my new writing & photography website.

After 25 years as a book editor, writing instructor and retreat coordinator – all of which I loved – the time seemed right in Spring 2021, in the midst of uncertainty over the pandemic and change everywhere, to shift focus: to explore with more intention my own creativity.

Two of my most enduring fascinations, writing and photography, involve paying close attention to interior and exterior worlds and have always felt part of me, but life, as they say, got in the way. I now write regularly with the Rock Balloon Writers, a group I founded, and share photographs on Instagram, @allyson_latta. Both these activities bring me much happiness, and I hope I can convey my passion and enthusiasm here.

Click here to see my latest Instagram images, and watch my Blog for upcoming posts that I hope will continue to encourage, celebrate and inspire writers.

Sincere thanks to Vancouver photographer Angel Lynne for the homepage image above. (Model: Meghan Latta)
