I’ve had a life-long fascination with the creative process. When I was 12, I was given a booklet on “creative problem-solving” by a teacher, and I was hooked.
I’ve been writing professionally since age 14, and have a bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Kansas. I’ve written, edited or produced annual reports, training and special event videos, magazines, newsletters, Web sites and radio news reports. I have more than 200 published articles to my credit.
I’ve carried on an old family tradition through my involvement in vocal and instrumental music. I play jazz trumpet and sing folk-rock and other styles of music. Other creative hobbies and work include cartooning, comedy, videography and photography.
Creativity coaching allows me to intertwine my skills in leadership, consultation and communication in order to help others manifest their potential. I can’t think of a better gig, and I’m pleased to be able to share my enthusiasm about creativity with my clients.

Hi Liz – I think this is a beautiful template – and serene. I love how the colors kind of reflect the ruddiness of the mountains in the font color in the sidebar and the blue of the sky. I’m adding this to the writer blogs too – I don’t think I’ve had it listed (or RSS’d which I’ll fix too). I look forward to following.

Hi Liz,
I’m thinking that we’ve met sometime before? I’m hoping you can solve that mystery . . .
At present, I like what you’re doing and hope to hear from you!

@ Fred: Thanks for the kind offer. I’ll see what I can do.
@ Jill: Thanks for adding me to your blogroll! Glad you like the new look of the site!
@ Kirk: Yes, we do know each other “offline”–I edited Echo Magazine from 2000 to 2003.

[...] Liz Massey has a beautiful blog, Creative Liberty. I cold-pitched her for a freelance profile of local artist and syndicated cartoonist Jenny Campbell about three or so years ago (I can’t remember anymore, Liz!) and did some other short pieces for her also. She is a wonderful and generous-soul editor, so I was quite flattered when she asked me to answer some questions for her In The Studio series. [...]

Your site has inspired me and is creating a bit of an “aha” moment for me. I have been a professional opera singer for twenty years and three years ago wondered, why, if singers are living their passions, are they so unhappy? It led me to train as a life coach and I find that more and more of my work is moving into workshops with young artists. I loved Twyla Tharpes book on defining and working on your creativity and now reading your blog, I wonder if this isn’t the next place for me to turn my attention to. I am bookmarking you and when I get better at my blog I will blog roll you. what you have to say, artists need to hear. Thank you.
