Hello, friends. Welcome. I’m Barbara, but I sign most of my work as B.A. Burgess.

I’m the author of the children’s picture book series *Fernando Learns* and *creator of the *How to Write a Children’s Book in 7 Days course. As a writer and writing facilitator, I’ve not only covered writing for children. I also dabble in short stories, essays, and fiction. My favorite genre is narrative non-fiction, which I am currently not very skilled at, but I’m working on it.

Why sign up to HELLOTHISISBARBARA

I write about writing, books I’m reading, things I’m watching, and listening to. If you have been thinking about starting a personal blog, but are afraid of typos on the internet, my blog will help you overcome that fear. Otherwise, you might like knowing what it’s like to write online, make books, and generally tumble about life journaling publicly.

Projects

HELLOTHISISBARBARA is a personal log where I write about everything. It’s a place to hone my personal essay writing and share my work and experiences with you all.

Some of this work warrants its own place on the internet. For example, I am a documentary photographer who believes everyone should document their life and the world around them in a meaningful way. If you love photography and are interested in exploring documentary photography, Fieldwork Frames is for you.
