Shop our store Description Shipping FAQ Create Anyway: The Joy of Pursuing Creativity in the Margins of Motherhood Writer and mother Ashlee Gadd helps you discover the sacred connection between creating and mothering. One-part commissioning, one-part pep talk, Create Anyway will propel you forward with a renewed sense of energy, purpose, and enthusiasm for stewarding the creative dreams God has planted in your heart–right alongside the diapers and carpool. Motherhood and creativity can coexist. You have creative dreams swirling in your heart, but pursuing them while changing diapers and managing the carpool schedule feels impossible. You have no time. No space. You can mother, or you can create. You certainly can’t do both (right?!).But what if you could pursue your God-given creative gifts alongside motherhood, for the enrichment of both experiences? What if you stopped viewing creativity as a selfish act, and started to see it as essential to your own flourishing as a mother? This book is a much-needed permission slip to do just that–through the pictures you take, the stories you write, the meals you make, the music you play, the gardens you grow.In this unforgettable book filled with rich storytelling and stunning photographs, writer and mother Ashlee Gadd helps you set aside the guilt and discover the sacred connection between creating and mothering. One-part commissioning, one-part pep talk, Create Anyway will propel you forward with a renewed sense of energy, purpose, and enthusiasm for stewarding the creative dreams God has planted in your heart–right alongside the diapers and carpool.Here’s to creating in the margins of motherhood.Here’s to creating anyway.Praise for Create Anyway”If you’ve ever felt like your creative energy and your motherhood were at odds, Create Anyway will be a balm to your soul.”–Ruth Chou Simons, mom to six boys, Wall Street Journal bestselling author, and founder of gracelaced.com”Create Anyway is an anthem, an invitation, a spark that will light a fire in your heart.”–Gretchen Saffles, founder of Well-Watered Women and bestselling author of The Well-Watered Woman”If you’re looking for a manual to help you reclaim the sacred slowness of motherhood and creativity, pick this one up today.”–Hannah Brencher, author of Fighting Forward and Come Matter Here”The stories and wisdom in Create Anyway will inspire you to prioritize and delight in making art, not in spite of motherhood, but because of it.”–Laura Wifler, author, podcaster, and cofounder of Risen Motherhood”I cried tears of release throughout this book. It’s dreamy and gorgeous and raw, and I feel as if I can finally exhale after two long, hard years.”–Leslie Means, creator of Her View From Home”Part pep talk, part permission slip, this beautiful book honors both the mothering journey and our God-given desires to create.”–Kayla Craig, author of To Light Their Way and creator of Liturgies for Parents”Create Anyway is a compassionate call to be enchanted by the ordinary and see the beauty right where you belong.”–Rachel Marie Kang, founder of The Fallow House and author of Let There Be Art”If you’ve ever questioned your value or worth in the long season of mothering little ones, I highly recommend this book!

The books we sell are known as bargain books. They are books that either are overstocks from the publishers or ones that went out to a Christian bookstore or major department store and were returned to the publisher when they did not sell. They are not used, though sometimes have cover wear. The publishers sell these at a great discount in bulk. We buy these and sort through them to grade their condition. You will note that many of the books are in new condition, but others have other conditions noted. We try to describe them as accurately as possible. What is a remainder book? A remainder book is a brand new book that the publisher would like to get rid of because of overstock, discontinuing the book, etc. The publisher will sell these books in bulk to bargain book dealers at a low cost, allowing us to sell to you. Some publishers will put a line or dot on the on the bottom outside page edges to indicate that it is a remainder book. This keeps the “new” book prices higher and does not allow retailers to return them to the publisher. Other publishers do not mark them in any way. Some of the books we sell have a remainder mark, but many do not. Please complete the eBay checkout process within 5 days.
