Who am I?

Picture
 ​Elizabeth Crooks is a writer, author, and artist who emphasizes mindfulness and living from the heart. When she is not sharing her knowledge through writings and art, she spends her time reading, traveling, walking in nature and doodling in love. She is a published author on several coloring books for both adults and children that focus on positive affirmations with Zentangle-inspired designs. She believes art is important to health and overall well-being.

As of July 2024, Liz has given her life to Jesus and stopped practicing New Age Spirituality


My Story:

As a child I never planned on writing about consciousness and awakening... I always thought I'd be a fiction writer. I love sci-fi and fantasy, and I have quite the imagination. While I've always wanted to be a writer and published author, I've also been self-conscious and critical of my work... not wanting anybody else to see or read it out of fear.

I spent 15 years in the New Age Spirituality movement before giving my life to Jesus Christ in July of 2024. My new focus is growing closer to God and sharing the joy of the Lord with the world. God saved me from a long-term abusive relationship with a narcissist, addiction, New Age witchcraft, and an overall apathetic attitude towards life, to name a few things.

No matter what you've done and who you think you are, God is the great Redeemer and welcomes all of His children home. I want to share God's transformative Love with the world, as it has helped me find purpose in my own life.

As for my Self-Love Journey:
​

​It's been a wild roller coaster of self-love over the years. Some days I can look in the mirror and see an amazing woman with so much love and confidence radiating from her very core... and some days I just can't do or be anything "right." As I discover more of who I am, I wish to share what I learn with you. I know loving yourself can be difficult at times, and it may even appear to be downright improbable, but the possibility is always there. Especially with the knowledge of God's Love.

I also love art in all its forms. I love writing and doodling. 
I believe that coloring is a beneficially meditative process and an outlet for creative expression at any age. Coloring and drawing have helped me find my passion in life again by slowing down and getting creative with colors and innovative designs. I create coloring books because that is what has helped me find happiness in my life, and I desire everyone in the world to feel as good as I do. Coloring is simple. Sharing is simple. Life doesn't have to be hard or messy.

​Find your passion, find your truth, and live it. Live for you as you love what you do.

10 Random Facts about Me


1. I love cats. I'd be a crazy cat lady if I liked cleaning more than one litter box though....that keeps me sane! Two cats/One box is my limit. As a child I collected everything cat related. I even made collages out of cat photos from magazines and calendars. 

2. I like making random words with the alphabet. I also make up my own languages by rearranging letters of the alphabet like a crypto puzzle. I use these made-up words and languages in the worlds I create on paper and in my head.

3. Final Fantasy video games have been my bread and butter since I was a kid. I've replayed them 50+ times at least, each. My all time favorite is FFIX and I am really into FFX now. I love the story lines and the underlying themes of consciousness that I now realize are there.

4. I'm a bread and potato girl. I could live on those two food groups but my body would say I need to add some fruit and other veggies in there...but what does it know? Actually I'm a vegan now so I eat a lot of fruits and veggies but my heart can live on bread and potatoes anytime.

5. My favorite animal changes depending on who asks and when. I never say 'cat' though as one would think... I'll either say 'owl', 'sea otter', or 'llama' as they are pretty awesome creatures.

6.I changed my major in college every semester. It took me 6 years to get a general degree: Bachelors of Liberal Studies (BA)

7. I used to draw maps and create worlds as a little kid. I would name every town, forest, mountain, lake, nation, etc. At that age I didn't know who Tolkien was or other authors who create these intense worlds and draw maps to follow their adventures. This may have been the preamble for my writing career and imagination in general.

8. I love science fiction and fantasy. I love a good book, movie or video game along those lines. I also have a very active imagination and am always going on my own adventures in my dreams.

9. I have fallen in love with making Zentangle-inspired coloring books. It is a calming activity that I love sharing with the world as well. I started art as a personal meditation but it's been fun to share it with the world as well.
​
10. In July of 2024 I read the Bible for the first time and gave my life to Jesus. It's been a humbling and spiritually-awakening journey moreso than the 15 years in the New Age spirituality movement. I did not realize how much witchcraft I was participating in and desire to save others from occult practices. I can't wait to share more about the Love of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and how the Word has changed my life for the better.
Discovering who we are and what we are here to do is a process and a journey. As I discover more about who I am and what I love to do, I find myself sharing more and more different kinds of things as I learn and grow on my personal journey.

​Check back often for updates, new projects, and lots of fun stuff. Just do you and let the rest of the universe fall into place in turn. I love you. Thank you for checking out my stuff and if it resonates with you, awesome! If not, that is awesome too! Find your truth and live it... I truly believe that is what we are here to do above all else.


Thank You
​Much Love, Elizabeth
