Creative Pixels

Jen is a mother of three, wife, writer, creator, and part of a neurodivergent household of five, where quiet is mostly theoretical, somebody is always looking for something, and unfinished thoughts are practically a family hobby.

A lot of what she creates comes directly from that life. Parenting, ADHD, mental health, writing, trying to stay organized when her brain has seventeen ideas running at once, and occasionally deciding that if the thing she needs does not exist, she may as well build it herself.

That tendency eventually became Creative Pixels, a home for the books, software, digital projects, and other things that come out of her slightly overactive brain.

As a writer, Jen has very little patience for recycled tropes, predictable characters, or polished advice that sounds nice but says absolutely nothing. Her nonfiction tends to be blunt, practical, sarcastic, and willing to talk about the parts of life people normally clean up before discussing them.

Her fiction goes darker. She writes about control, survival, damage, power, psychology, and the pieces of people that refuse to stay buried. Rather than stopping at the obvious version of an idea, she likes digging into why people behave the way they do and seeing just how far a story can be pushed before it becomes uncomfortable.

Current writing projects include the Beneath the Collar series, Beneath His Eyes, and When Meltdowns Need Stillness, a practical parenting book about connecting with children who struggle with overwhelm, emotional regulation, and communication.

And because apparently an ADHD brain sees an unfinished manuscript and interprets it as permission to begin another entire project, she is also building PeciaDesk, a Windows writing organization program created for writers whose manuscripts, characters, notes, research, worldbuilding, and random 2 a.m. ideas have developed a habit of living in seventeen different places.

There is no grand master plan behind Creative Pixels. It grew out of writing things she wanted to read, building things she wanted to use, and making things that might be useful to somebody else too.

She creates for people who are tired of perfect characters, recycled advice, unnecessary fluff, and pretending that real life is ever particularly tidy.

“I don’t write easy stories. I write the ones that get into your head and refuse to leave.”

Design • Build • Inspire

The name is broad on purpose. A pixel can become almost anything once enough pieces come together, which leaves plenty of room for whatever gets made next.
