Naomi Clarke writes personal essays that feel like a long conversation over a second cup of coffee. Her work explores motherhood, marriage, creative ambition, and the quiet dramas of midlife. After a career in academic advising, Naomi began writing essays that quickly found homes in literary magazines and online journals. She now teaches memoir writing workshops and contributes regularly to Story Peak, where her column about the everyday astonishments of ordinary life has built a loyal readership. Naomi lives in a century-old house in Pittsburgh with her husband, two teenagers, and an ever-growing collection of half-finished journals. She believes every life contains a dozen memoirs.
