About Me

Mission Statement - We offer professional and affordable editorial services and passionately promote creativity among our clients. We strive to entertain and educate while developing human potential.

Why Crimson Clover? - Having graduated from the University of Alabama, Tim Jackson is a huge fan of Crimson Tide football, and thus crimson has a special place in his heart. For Taryn Chase, a good Irish lass, clover equals shamrock. Crimson clover, or Trifolium Incarnatum, is one of the 300 species of clover, a plant the Celts believed to be sacred and magical. Likewise, we hope Crimson Clover Creative brings good fortune to you!

Website - For more information, go to Crimson Clover Creative.com , the New River Voice , and the New River Voice blog .

Taryn has been declared "A master of storytelling"
