“When the writing fit came on, she gave herself up to it with entire abandon, and led a blissful life, unconscious of want, care, or bad weather, while she sat safe and happy in an imaginary world, full of friends almost as real and dear to her as any in the flesh.”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
WHO AM I
My name is Ashley Cory, and I have been writing since I came out of the womb.
​
No really, I can't ever remember a time when I wasn't writing. I started with poetry, moved to fiction, went back to poetry, and most recently I have found my voice for true, honest, real life writing.
I was raised by fiercely strong women, and have been taught to be nothing less.
​
I am originally from the mountains of Eastern Kentucky, but am a Hoosier through and through. Go IU!
I am a psychotherapist and received my MSW at IU.
​
I am married to the sweetest, most thoughtful man who is my best friend. We have a spoiled cat and an even more spoiled daughter.
​
I love coffee, wine, writing, reading, and rainy days.
​
I hope you can find your home here, in my entire abandon!
