Seize the Day




Hello, my name is Carpe Diem and I am an avid writer. I love it. It gives me a thrill I can't find anywhere else. I also love reading. It is a great place to find sanctuary and refuge.


My pen name Carpe Diem means 'seize the day' in Latin. Why did I pick this phrase for my name? Because this phrase means a lot to me. It helps remind me how important each day is and how important the small things are in our lives.

You cannot eat an elephant unless you take a bite at a time.


You cannot reach your vision unless you set and achieve goals.





One of my favorite poems by Douglas Malloch is ' Good Timber.' It is inspiring and helps me feel strong when winds and hard times have hit me.



This poem is literally a story of my life. I have been through a lot and I have become stronger and stronger as I have gone through these experiences. Some of these experiences may come up in one of my posts during the duration of my time in this creative writing class. I also want to encourage anyone to ask any questions and in future posts I will try to address your question and give my opinion on that certain question you have.

I am excited to post to you guys and answer your soul searching questions. Do not be afraid to ask questions because others might have the same question also.
