Craig Naylor

Welcome to my new blog and website!

I wear many hats, but they all add up to CREATE!
I’ll be sharing about my journey through life as a writer of novels, poetry, and magazine articles; my projects, past and present, as a composer of sacred and environmentally-themed concert and church music; my insights from training and teaching the martial art Aikido; and the breaths of fresh air I get while in my organic garden and orchard of (mostly) heirloom apples.

Welcome! I hope you enjoy taking a few travels with me.

Balance

I sometimes wish my life were filled with one focused activity. I guess I have too many squirrels climbing too many creative fences.
