ABOUT

I’m a writer who paints, an editor who sketches, a curator designing her life

If life goes as planned, this About page should be obsolete just about every other month. But if you need something official to copy and paste (format stolen from @austinkleon), steal this. Suzanne Brazil is a published writer whose work has been featured in Chicken Soup for the Soul, The Seattle Post Intelligencer, The Daily Herald (Chicago), Writer’s Digest, and in print for many local publications. She is a regular contributor to several blogs. She has completed exactly 1.5 novels, countless short stories, flash fiction, and an award-winning Haiku. She has written and performed Live Lit in Chicago with instruction from the founder of Story Club, has interviewed numerous best-selling authors in print and online as well as on her Living the Writing Life site.

Suzanne has received testimonials from novelist Abby Geni, Sara Connell, and more. In previous lives, she has worked as an editor, a bodybag inspector, bookseller, hotel manager, content writer, and Director of Creative Ops in marketing.

In 2021, she hit the road and camped, explored, hiked, and visited her way around the country with her rescue dog, Dewey. After almost 2 years working out of the back of her SUV, she established a base near the beach in NC. Here she decided to release her sketchbooks into the world via local shops and markets as well as online via her new studio, A Splendid Torch.

She feels lucky to believe that home is who you love. For her that’s her daughter Emily (and family), and son, Jeremy. Visit her online at www.suzannebrazil.com
