About Taylor Nieland
Bio
Taylor Nieland is a lover of words. She is the author of Taking Back My Yellow Hearts, a collection of words, thoughts, and poems to address heartbreak and betrayal + healing and moving forward, available now on Amazon.
She is the also author of a YA speculative fiction novel called, Prisoners of Air, for which she is currently seeking representation. As a big believer in the power of words, she enjoys writing in both genres because of their unique ability to connect people’s hearts and shared experiences across time and space.
She is also the owner of Parchment Lane, where she handcrafts journals out of vintage books, and assembles collage kits curated from various sources of vintage paper.
Taylor is the mother of two humans and one Goldendoodle. When she is not reading, writing, or elbow-deep in thrift stores searching for unique antique items, she enjoys spending time with her husband rock-climbing and playing cut-throat games with their extended family.
Taking Back My Yellow Hearts
Taking Back My Yellow Hearts is a collection of words, thoughts, and poems for anyone who has experienced heartbreak or betrayal. Using a unique approach, the titles of each poem tell of a story that began with friendship, resulted in deception, and ends with continual healing and a new appreciation of the things that matter in life.
Prisoners of Air Manuscript Progress
Thank you so much for checking out my website! I'm excited to announce that I have completed the manuscript for my YA speculative fiction novel, Prisoners of Air. It has been through two professional editors, and read by multiple beta readers, whose feedback and insights were beyond instrumental in my development as an author. I am currently seeking agent representation.
About Prisoners of Air
Prisoners of Air is about a once-immortal, seventeen-year-old prisoner who must compete to earn her freedom. But the competition is rigged. And the prize is not what she thinks.
The only question is...
How far would you go to escape the darkness?
Parchment Lane
Parchment Lane allows you to bring new life to vintage pieces.
Collage Kits
Assembled using vintage paper from various sources (books, magazines, comic books, album covers, etc) decorative die cuts, favorite quote stickers, poetry, and more! Each kit includes a canvas in a few select sizes. It’s a fun activity to do solo, for girls’ night (wine and cheese not included), or even a date night!
Collages can be fun, whimsical, and explode with color. Or, they can express a broken heart on its way to healing through black and white. This is the beauty of art!
Handmade Vintage Journals
Every journal includes the original book cover, copyright page, a few special pages from the book, a bookmark crafted from the spine, and plenty of blank pages for journaling. Each journal is a one-of-a-kind piece, and is a fantastic gift option. Or, if you would rather keep it for personal use, journaling can be immensely healing during life’s trials.
Having a creative outlet can be a great way to process experiences or to unwind purposefully.
