Hello. My name is Julia A. Keirns, but you can call me Julie. I began writing at a young age and continued to write stories and poems all through high school. I was the editor of my high school newspaper.
I have an Associate of Arts degree in General Studies from Eastern Gateway Community College and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Creative Writing and English with a concentration in Fiction from SNHU.
I enjoy history and non-fiction, and especially enjoy interviewing people and hearing their stories. I wish I could write them all down. I love writing for children and have several children’s picture books published.
Within this website, you can search and find all my poetry, stories, articles, book reviews, personal essays, and more. Some of it has been published elsewhere and some of it has not. I hope you enjoy what you read here.
I have had several things published over the years in magazines and I wrote for the local newspapers for a few years. I have written pieces across the internet. You will find links throughout the site.
Some of my prose, poems, and articles about writing can be found at www.poetrysoup.com, and several stories, poems, and articles at www.medium.com as well as travel articles. If you are not a paying member of Medium, you can join for only $4.99 per month to read unlimited stories and you can cancel anytime.
You can find all my children’s picture books available for sale at Amazon by clicking here. So far I have twenty published books.
I love reading and am currently working my way through the classics. Right now I am working on writing a young adult thriller novel and hope to have it finished soon, so stay tuned.
The goal is simply to write.
I recently wrote an article at medium.com titled “Why I Love To Write.”
Thanks for stopping by.
