Who I Am:

A photo of me after I shaved my head.

I am Brenda Pruitt, Writer, Content Creator, & Publisher of Cozy Little House.

  • I have been writing since grade school, and I’m the sole writer for this blog.
  • I studied professional writing in college.
  • I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in a house over a century old. I refer to this house as “Mamie.”

Experience:

I graduated from the University of OK with a degree in professional writing, and also won regional and national writing awards.

I have always been a freelance writer, writing feature articles. The Cozy Little House blog was begun in April 2009.

Furthermore, I write about a host of topics: decorating, gardening, pets, entertainment, and essays on life. So I’d refer to myself as a Lifestyle blogger, with those topics being the main content.

I shaved my head during the COVID-19 pandemic and kept it that way for nearly five years. Now, I finally let my hair grow out again.

What I Write About:

I write about a variety of topics. Decorating, gardening, homekeeping, and simple living fit into one area. But I also write about entertainment and what I watch and read. I write about pets and my three beloved cats.

Then there is the category I call Reflections, where I write essay-style posts about life.

Tidbits About Me:

  • I’m a solitary woman living alone (with kitties!)
  • I’m an avid container gardener.
  • I like to tweak decor.
  • I read 1-2 books per week (mostly thrillers & crime novels).
  • I love streaming TV & movies.
  • I’m an introvert & love my alone time.
