Sofa and the City: Portfolio

I now write at The Reinvention Tour. Come on over - if you like.

I also write articles about health, recovery, personal development, travelling and general musings on life. Here are some examples of pieces I have written. If you like what you see you can always email me at karencripps01@yahoo.co.uk with a writing opportunity (I am open to guest posting too).

People say the loveliest things!!

'Thank you for this blog, I do enjoy reading it and what you are bringing up and into the open in such a fabulous style!' Kate

'What's my therapy for when Mr. M.E sweeps me off my feet? Why, reading Sofa Karen's bog of course!' Jo

'Loving it Karen! What a brilliant and informative synopsis of the XMRV and all it entails!! Thank you for your uplifting blogs and help towards the crusade of enlightenment!' xx Ngaire

'Your insatiable quest to learn, understand and conquer and that unique sense of style in which you do it, is as infectious in print as it is in person.' Emma

'You always manage to express what I'm thinking!' Lauren

'I love individualism, and you got it to a T! It's about the here and NOW, making each day count; especially us women. We are strong, beautiful, "know what we want", living our purpose, bad mammer jammers! Thanks for sharing your story!' Callie

'This is so interesting to me. I know so little about ME and I am sure that if it happened to me my approach would be totally similar to yours. It is astonishingly hard for a type-A personality to accept that despite trying and working very hard at something they might still not get the result they want...I am beginning to get a glimpse of what you've gone through - and it must be hard.' Petraruns

'Hilarious and poignant at the same time - the lengths we go to to get well. You're born to blog Karen, keep up the good work!' The Boy Pacer

'I loved every minute of your post -- the text, the pictures. It was my getaway!' Toni

'I love your writing....and find your work as good as any book I have read. I particularly like the personal touch, your life, thoughts and feelings etc...The humorous side to your writing always lifts me. Keep it up girl, if it feels good...!' x Julia

'Discovered your blog quite recently whilst going through another rough patch with our friend Mr M.E and you have helped me to feel a little more positive as well as making me smile. Thank you!' x Alison
