Today we’d like to introduce you to Chloe Milena.
Chloe, please kick things off for us by telling us about yourself and your journey so far.
When it comes to expressing my creativity, I choose to convey it through writing and photography. I am currently going to school to receive a degree in English literature and I am an aspiring author. There is true beauty that comes from pouring out your emotions and thoughts into your craft. For me, being able to convey messages through writing is therapeutic and encouraging. A big piece of finding inspiration comes from my surroundings. Something as simple as a vibrant sunset or a collection of sunflowers can be a spark to a topic to write about. Capturing those inspiring views through photography is truly something I want to continue doing purely as a hobby.
Can you give our readers some background on your art?
Every occurrence in our existence mold us into the people we are today. I am a strong believer in the fact that everything happens for a reason. Each moment whether it be tragic, joyous, or harrowing, are all building blocks that shape us into better versions of ourselves. How does this affix to my own life story? Well, being a writer comes with the demand of having content to work with. I personally aspire to write about true experiences. My life growing up was nothing to regret. I have loving parents, siblings that I adore, and a roof over my head. Between all those lines is where the bits and pieces of all my blogs posts come into play. My experiences provide me with inspiration to write and connect with others.
Any advice for aspiring or new artists?
Any creative path that you choose comes with some sort of cost. Yes, I can admit that making money through your craft definitely serves us a feeling of being rewarded for our hard work. Something that we all have to remember at the end of the day is how much impact we made to others around us. Not a day passes by without me being extremely grateful for my life and how my experiences can help others overcome their own struggles. It is just a constant reminder that what we do can really make a difference on the world and that is the greatest reward I could ever ask for.
What’s the best way for someone to check out your work and provide support?
I have a blog called “Piecing Ourselves Together” which is a place to begin sharing my personal experience through dealing with family and friends that suffer from mental disorders. I write about events that took place in my life and how I handled them, whether or not I handled it appropriately. I’m hoping that by reading about my mistakes and my successes, others will all be able to find relief in situations they may be going through. In regards to supporting my work, I absolutely love when my audience contacts me through my blog to share their own experiences. The fact that I can connect with people all over the world is something I cherish deeply.
