Ever since then, she's been penning ideas, having written various novels, short stories, and poetry. If she were to write about her real life in a diary today, it would be full of the tales of a stay-at-home mom to five cleaning up the endless, impossible-to-keep-up-with messes a family can make.Aside from motherhood, Kristina is also a full-time content creator on YouTube, where videos of her everyday life have, inexplicably, attracted a fair number of subscribers. It baffles her constantly, but fulfills her need to always be creating. She lives in the greenery of the Pacific Northwest with her family, three cats, and the raging signs of AuDHD scattered in every corner of her house. Which probably explains the various new diaries laying around that are all half-filled with grocery lists, attempts at journaling again, and unfinished story notes.If you'd like to see more from her, you can find her on the aforementioned platform as With Love, Kristina, or on Instagram as @kristinawithlove","brand":"Well Loved Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51635278250258,"sku":"9798998629518","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_b51f1b5c-bdee-4cef-98e8-671ea2424320.jpg?v=1759227603","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-devil-and-the-midwife-9798998629518","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
