Hailey Betts

Creative Writer and Artist

Art and Writing all in one place.

General Information

Hobbies/Joys

I love drawing creatures and writing stories, going outside, playing games, chilling with my cats, hanging out with friends and family, vibing with some good music or watching a movie/show.

Interests

I’d like to get into either writing books or illustrating stories. Comics and related media forms have been one of my favorite pastimes as of recent years so I’d like to have my own works versioned into the same form.
