Hi, I'm Cole and that's my dog Hairy. I write about my life, my profession and my leisure on this blog. This blog is divided into categories (see below) so you can more easily find what you are interested in. From 2009–2013, I ran a  website called Simplicity Embellished (which focused on letter writing/writing tools) and merged all of the content from there to my blog on HelloCole.com. Now, you have more to read, and I have more to share.
