Hi! I'm Christina Wert and I'm a freelance graphic designer and artist, including fiber art and crafts of all kinds! I'm a fantasy writer working on a series that I hope to publish soon, and a huge geek that loves miniatures, folklore, Japanese culture, ukulele and unusual instruments, singing, and cats.

    Happiness is a warm kitten | Happy Birthday, Moss!

    June 9, 2015 /

    It’s Moss’ First Birthday!!! Birthdays are always special, but after all he’s been through, this one feels particularly dear. I wrote this long-form poem, which is more like a journal entry, in October last year, right after Moss had completed recovery from his invasive gastro surgery. He’d ingested a bunch of string that perforated his stomach lining and got close to his kidneys. After a nerve-wracking night of surgery, and a thankfully successful recovery, he’d had his stitches removed and his belly was still growing back all his hair. He was out of the woods at last, and I was treasuring his safety and health, wanting to appreciate every tiny,…

    20 Things You Might Not Know About Me | Blacksburg Belle Blog Tag

    November 4, 2014 /

    This blog post is a part of the “20 Things You Might Not Know About Me” Blog Tag started by April from Blacksburg Belle. She began this blog tag experiment to build community among creatives, help us bloggers to connect more and get to know each other better. This month’s topic is all about sharing just a little too much information about yourself. If you’d like to participate or want more info, check out the beginning post right here. Figured I’d post this to kick off the first week of NaNoWriMo 2014! Thanks for the tag, Sarah Shotts! Let’s a-go! Question 1: How tall are you? 5’2″. I’m fun-sized! Question 2: Do you have a hidden…

    THE MOSSVLOG! The purring and playing machine!

    September 26, 2014 /

    Uploaded this earlier in the week, but I didn’t want the post it to take away the 200th spot from the appointed entry! Meet our new fuzzy, black family member Demosthenes, better known as Moss. He’s the sweetest, most playful little guy, and he lights up my life! I only wish his big sister Panger felt the same way we do about him. But I know she’ll come around 😉

    Vlogs that I forgot to post on here

    August 21, 2014 /

    Remember how I used to have a Youtube video importing plugin that stopped importing my vlogs a number of months ago? Yeah. That was fun. As I’m updating my site I have to go back, delete the random vlogs I don’t really want on here (they’ll still be up on my Youtube channel) and re-embed the ones I do want, cuz I just got sick of the plugin. SO, in honor of Throwback Thursday, I’m posting some of these older ones from this year and the end of last year, which I really like a lot, but never made it here. They’re posted from most to least recent. Do enjoy!

    NaNoWriMo: The Moving Picture!

    November 20, 2012 /

    Meant to post this a few days ago, but I think I have most of the kinks iron out! The ironic thing is, I spent all day making this video, so I’ve only written a hundred or so words and now I’m too tired to make my quota for the day 😛 But I think it’s worth it. This video makes me so happy! Hope you enjoy! For information about National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), visit nanowrimo.org. All the music in this video is free, and I got it from incompetech.com

    THE PANGERVLOG! I have a new writing buddy!

    June 7, 2012 /

    You want the cute? Well, YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE CUTE! Seriously, she meows like a squeaky toy, gets high on catnip and rolls off her scratcher, fights furiously with one of her toys and then falls asleep. She is a non-stop photo opportunity, and she isn’t camera-shy! And in case you were curious, her name is Pangerbon, and I just got her last week. Her name is Irish, roughly meaning “white cat.” It’s originally from a really old Irish poem called “Pangur Bán” about a monk and his cat (more here: www.ceantar.org This poem was a source of inspiration for one of my favorite movies of all time, “The Secret…
