As you may remember, we celebrated the release of The Auroras & Blossoms PoArtMo Anthology: 2020 Edition (A Digital Gathering of Inspirational Works) with a special PoArtMo Show last week. Thank you to all the people who tuned in and left comments!
If you missed the show, that’s fine, as you can watch it here at the link below! We had great guests: Patricia Tiffany Morris and Julie A. Sellers. Both had fascinating things to say about art and the creative process.

About Julie A. Sellers
Julie A. Sellers is a Spanish professor, Federally Certified Court Interpreter, and creative writer. A native of Kansas, she has travelled extensively in the Americas and Europe. She has twice been the overall prose winner of the Kansas Voices Contest (2017, 2019).
Julie’s creative work has appeared in many publications, including Fabrizo Paterlini: Microstories–the Eighth Note, Eastern Iowa Review, The Write Launch, and the Journal of L.M. Montgomery Studies. Julie’s third academic book, The Modern Bachateros: 27 Interviews (McFarland, 2017), received the Kansas Authors Club 2018 It Looks Like A Million Book Award.
Patricia Tiffany Morris gravitates towards inspirational messages of hope and encourages others to find their inner artist. An eclectic Christian creative with a geeky-tech affinity and a poet with three names, she writes fiction, picture books, and prose, using both sides of her brain.
Patricia discovered her love for digital artwork in 2020 and creates illustrations on her iPad. She adores hashtags and Pinterest but finds Twitter quirky. As a member of Word Weavers International, Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), and loads of FB groups, Patricia runs Tiffany Inks Studio from her home.
