Kristine Bruneau : Writer. Author. Mother.
Hi, I’m Kristine — a writer and author exploring creativity in everyday life. Through writing on creativity and life, I share reflections on art, family, work, and the unexpected moments that spark connection and meaning. Whether I’m writing about motherhood, design, tennis, or the messy magic of daily living, my goal is the same: to notice, reflect, and share lessons that help us see ourselves a little more clearly.
For nearly two decades, I wrote Mommy Musings, a reflective parenting blog that captured the joys and conundrums of motherhood. That work became the foundation of my first book, Mommy Musings: Lessons on Motherhood, Love, and Life— a collection of my most resonant essays on family and identity.
As my son grew and my perspective broadened, so did my writing. What began as a focus on parenting has evolved into Writing on Creativity and Life — stories that reach beyond family into the wider intersections of art, mindfulness, work, and the unexpected ways creativity shows up in everyday living.
Along the way, I’ve authored hundreds of articles, performed my essays at sold-out shows, and published in outlets including DaKa Magazine, Rochester Woman Magazine, Rochester Magazine, and the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. With more than thirty years of professional experience in advertising, public relations, and marketing, I’ve worn many hats, earned a few awards, and learned that every path offers a story worth telling.
I live in Rochester, NY with my husband, son, and two boxers who keep life delightfully unpredictable: Marz, the oversized goofball who bowls you over with both enthusiasm and affection, and Star, a spirited, sharp-tongued diva who never misses mealtime or a belly rub.
