Sometimes writer, always happy to talk. I’m mixed-heritage: American, Canadian, and British. I grew up in the United States and Canada, but I’ve lived in London, England since 2001. I should have a ‘mid-Atlantic’ accent by now, but I still sound like a sarcastic Canuck. I originally trained as a journalist but got very distracted by coding. Since then, I’ve worked in the tech industry in Canada and the UK for 25+ years. I’ve recently returned to my first love of writing. I like creating stories that have humour and heart. And I’m thrilled that you’re here… https://www.lizkessick.com/about daily 0.75 2025-02-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/1594417626987-W8OKO2XM2YLWXU5XS9EF/Screenshot+2020-07-10+at+22.45.32.png About https://www.lizkessick.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-08-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/1594417782000-LLWDZMN3RO49A0PGPT0M/Screenshot+2020-07-10+at+22.48.13.png Contact - Get in touch elizabeth.kessick@gmail.com I am represented by Samantha Haywood and Eva Oakes at Transatlantic Literary Agency You can also find my creative nonfiction at my new Substack, Pear in Exile: https://lizkessick.substack.com/ https://www.lizkessick.com/writing-projects daily 0.75 2025-08-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/1624455587748-8KCCVHEX09K20B6CM14Q/IMG_5095.jpeg Writing projects it’s hard to get writing done when these two are in the way! https://www.lizkessick.com/querying-tips daily 0.75 2025-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Querying tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Querying tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Querying tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607638148090-Y6OFDI575CM3NQV732RJ/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0387.jpg Querying tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607628784608-5D22G9GPLHDSAB2IXC2G/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0638.jpg Querying tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847743861-GWVMBPD7Z7WQRQL9IZZ8/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0380.jpg Querying tips https://www.lizkessick.com/nanowrimo-tips daily 0.75 2025-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607638148090-Y6OFDI575CM3NQV732RJ/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0387.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607628784608-5D22G9GPLHDSAB2IXC2G/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0638.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847743861-GWVMBPD7Z7WQRQL9IZZ8/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0380.jpg NaNoWriMo tips https://www.lizkessick.com/query-letter daily 0.75 2023-06-30 https://www.lizkessick.com/misty daily 0.75 2025-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/e37350b6-a46c-4631-9efa-d184cbe754a6/1.png Misty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/acea6ed4-f2cd-48ef-a7f7-ec1c21220674/2.png Misty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/78b31bc0-920d-4cb3-91e0-b13db4c5a234/3.png Misty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/b60d1dbf-3fc1-4d84-bb28-45336b5ccb7f/4.png Misty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f07444d0e3f5649bff61349/9e718b1d-86c1-4b50-af25-44b6a78ce8d0/5.png Misty
