About Me

Hello! My name is Jessica Anderson. Actually, Jessica Anderson is my pen name. My real name is Mary Kelm, but I’ve used Jessica Anderson as my blogging pen name for several years. (I previously used the pen name Mary Ruth Anderson on this blog and on other social media sites.) My nicknames are Jesse and Essie, which is why I use Jessica as a pen name and I’m known as Essie of Who online.

Growing up I intended on working as an animator for Disney, but I attended college to study something else but left college due to health problems. I started this blog in 2011 to show my creative side.  No matter if it is art, sewing, photography, knitting, or something else, I share whatever I create and feel comfortable to post online.

I also run a second blog, The Estella Initiative, a lifestyle and travel blog. I also have three Youtube channels, Essie of Who, a craft, sewing, and DIY channel, The Estella Initiative, a YouTube extension of The Estella Initiative blog, and The Estella Initiative Archive, a channel dedicated to all the videos I recorded at festivals, conventions, and other places. Currently the YouTube channels are on hiatus to focus on blogging and other things.

Other hobbies I love include hiking, going to museums, reading, and watching TV and movies.
