Who is Leslye Wrytes?

Welcome Kindred Spirit!

Gifted with the first name of Leslye, Leslye Wrytes is the name I created for business purposes long before knowing what the purposes might be. Years later, when I began writing and designing greeting cards, Leslye Wrytes was the perfect name for the new venture.

Having enjoyed the beauty of language via reading and writing since my earliest days, I took these skills for granted. Appreciating their importance in my life as a student, I assumed that they were basic skills for all. It wasn't until well into my adult years that my perception began to change. Consequently, I began to recognize my unique writing style.

While attending Mass during the Season of Advent, I was shocked to realize that I had not purchased any Christmas cards. I wondered, "Oh, my! What will I do?" In a heartbeat, I responded to myself, "It's okay, I'll write them."

I spent that afternoon writing what would become my first Christmas cards. With simple yet profound words, I printed the messages on 20 lb. paper in holiday shades of red and green. The responses to the messages were so favorable that today's Leslye Wrytes collection includes more than 200 designs and are available at http://www.leslyewrytes.com/.

Blessings to you,
Leslye
