Anna Lovind - learning to create for enjoyment not necessity

Anna Lovind learned to read and write when she was very young, and used writing as a survival mechanism for a while, helping her through, although not understand, things that were happening to her in her young life. It was much later that she realized that writing could be an enjoyable form of expression and a way to explore her voice. Because of past traumas she had to rebuild her life before she could get to that point.
She became a very successful editor and had a busy urban lifestyle, but city life and imposed working structures didn’t suit her – she has since discovered she is autistic, which helped her understand why that lifestyle didn’t sit well with her – and returned to a Swedish country life similar to the one she had grown up in.
Anna's book, The Creative Doer,  is a practical and profound journey towards making your creative dreams happen.
