About


Lotus Carroll

I have been writing my whole life, blogging (as “Sarcastic Mom”) since 2007, and am a firm believer that survival requires humor. Without humor, I’d have turned farther down darker roads many times in my life.

I’m a tech-savvy woman with a camera and laptop, sustained by coffee, wine, and laughter, desperately seeking more of the world every day. I want to record and share everything. I have learned to practice awareness constantly, because every day is full of things you aren’t expecting. You can let yourself drift past them or open your eyes… they’ll never be worse for not having been noticed, but you might.

Things I need to be happy: my camera, my garden, exercise, my family & friends, laughter, music, and good food with good wine. The rest falls into place.

The most amazing things I have gained from writing online is a support system I never could have dreamed of that saves my life a little bit every day and the ability to reach so many people so easily, all the time. My life is better because I blog, and I want to give that back whenever I can.

My main skill sets are Writing and Photography, and I want to do more of both going forward.

I am based in Austin, TX, but I love hopping on airplanes! I’m very interested in travel/exploration and available for hire to shoot… well, anything. I’m open to landscape/architecture/people/events/etc. Let me know what you need.
