"Ever since I was little, I have been drawn to words and their power to connect, whether that’s personal writing to connect with yourself or words that you share to connect with others."

Meet Author Miriam Hathaway

Miriam Hathaway has always had a love for words. As a child growing up in Colorado, she’d often bring her writing notebooks along on canoe trips and read among the aspen trees. And as a college student, she’d take her late-night study breaks in the children’s section of the library, escaping to the wondrous worlds amongst the pages.

Now Miriam’s lifelong love of literature fuels her storytelling, as she is the author of several children’s books, gift books, and guided journals, each with a special way of adding sunshine to someone’s day. Some of her writing even has a famous following—her letter-writing kits were selected as one of Oprah’s Favorite Things!

Miriam's writings hold space for our universal human experience, illuminating the connections that exist all around us and within us. We invite you to explore her beautiful collection of books, guided journals, and keepsake gifts that honor every relationship in your life.
