Hi, I’m Chelsea, 
A book loving, baby catching, INFJ ADHDer! Books became a literal lifeline during one the darkest times of my life. They have now become vital in my mission to embrace the whimsy, and help disconnect from a hectic day/night supporting local families at such a vulnerable but transformative time in their lives. 

I am also a writer in the making (first time writing this publicly, eeeeek!). For years I have dreamed of becoming an author, and its about time I got more proactive in achieving it. I love literary fiction but will read anything that’s juicy, full of chaos/ unhinged behaviour/ women’s wrongs.

So, I’m dreaming and blogging my way toward writing my first novel.
Welcome to Bookish Midwife Musings — a cozy space for books, reflections, and my journey from reader to writer.
