Will you love yourself no matter what?
I create resources and stories to bring readers and writers home to the safe harbor of the self, where we learn to accept who we are and love others as they are. This is the human work of equality. At the place where love hurts—at the crossroads of a terrible choice, in the shadowed privacy of our internal spaces, in the buried secrets we dare not share—a story of redemption awaits. I write to reveal the ways we are not lost.
“Grace taught me so much. Her words are thoughtful, considerate, and helpful. She is an amazingly kind and gentle teacher.” —Galina Knopman, author
What you’ll find here
I write on a myriad of topics related to love, liberation, and literature—including self-help for creative intuitives, advice for writers, and peeks behind-the-scenes of my novels (written under my fiction pen name, Alice Archer). These articles, books, and courses all relate to the core of what I teach about: the power, freedom, and resilience that arise from telling the truth—first to ourselves.
“Grace’s curiosity and questions taught me to love myself on a deeper level. Her peaceful presence has allowed me to do what I do best.” —Sarah Seidelmann, author

About Grace Kerina / Alice Archer
As Grace Kerina, I’ve actively championed highly sensitive people and creative intuitives for more than thirty years, through articles, books, courses, and as an editor and writing coach. As Alice Archer, I (slowly) write inclusive romance novels in a literary style, featuring highly sensitive, intuitive, creative main characters. As an amateur photographer and artist, I make other things too, some of which will show up here (for example, the image at the top of this page is a portion of a collage called “Red Study” or “The View from the Lighthouse”). I can’t help myself—making and sharing things is fun.
“Grace Kerina is warm and insightful. As a first time author, this combination was exactly what I needed.” —Mark Fennel, author
“Alice Archer has a remarkable command of character, pacing and place, even her simplest turns of phrase capable of evoking the strongest of emotions, and reading her books never fails to change me deeply.” —Natasha Is a Book Junkie
