About

Hi, I’m Nicole Olea, I first began blogging in 2007.  I’ve always been a lifestyle blogger and though I do plan on continuing to share stories about my family’s adventures as my husband and I navigate his serving our nation and the quasi-nomadic life we have with our three children. I want to share more about how I’ve crafted a fearlessly creative life and about the wonderful books I read along the way.

I learned a long time ago if I’m not creating, whether it’s: writing, crafting, planting flowers, taking pictures, planning parties, or even doodling poorly, my happy meter tends to go down. I need to create.

I believe we’re all meant to be creative, and the best part about creativity is that there are no rules. You can be creative however you wish. For example, I’m not an artistic person, I can’t draw to save my life, but I do write, I can craft and make things pretty. I’ll share how I do that and try to live my best creative life.

What’s my brand of creativity? Typically you’ll find craft posts, DIY projects, photographs, creative celebrations, and since I’m an avid reader you will definitely find book reviews and other book-nerd geekery. As a writer, I also share my personal stories about the craft of writing. Occasionally when the mood suits I will sprinkle in a cocktail I came up with, or even a favorite recipe.

I’m a freelance writer (ghostwriting too) for hire. NICOLEOLEA.COM is PR friendly and open to sponsorship through sponsored posts and guest blogs.
