This blog page isn’t about portraying my many travels, heavily accumulated makeup stash or what I eat in a day. This blog page was made to share my creative and compelling content with the world. I will be sharing my short stories, novel segments, random thoughts and other different forms of writing. If you enjoy a good story, grab a cup of coffee, sit down and start reading.
Now for a little bit about who I am.
My name is Calissa Treat and I am from a tiny town that lies in the ice box of the nation. I packed up and moved my heart to Washington state two years ago. I love running in rain that feels wispy, I love sipping rye whiskey on a patio, trying to see through the darkness to catch a star. My parents are the most humane people I know. Kindness is like a fifth limb to them. My sister is the more stubborn, bold version of me. She is my life line and the only person I can make fun of my parents with. My entire family is the epitome of me. My friends are what keeps me going, I am lucky to have found a soul-mate in them.
Writing is more than a passion for me, I would say it is as much a part of me as my own blood. I am aware that it is always in me, moving through my veins, keeping me alive. I was born with a pencil in my hand and a story to share with the world. My writing is about rendering the moment.
It is all about the details for me.
I am a detail hunter.
I aim to pull an emotion out of my readers.
Characters that have depth and cause me to hate or fall madly in love with them, are what good story telling is all about. I believe a riveting dialogue can tell a story all on it’s own.
Words are just words, but when you craft them into a compelling rendering of the world around you, well then those aren’t just words anymore.
That is art.
