I'm Ruth Calder Murphy, also known as RCM, or, Arciemme. I'm a personal trainer and wellness professional, a writer, artist, musician, teacher, wife and mother-of-three, living in London, UK. My life is wonderfully full of creativity and low-level chaos. (Rising, if I'm honest, to high-level at times!)

I'm the co-author of two published novels - "The Scream" and "The Everlasting Monday" - and author of several books of poetry, one or two as-yet unpublished novels and lots of short stories.

I'm passionate about celebrating the uniqueness and diversity of people, questioning the unquestionable and discovering new perspectives on old wonders. I'm learning to ride the waves that come along - peaks and troughs - and am waking up to just how wonderful life really is.


I'm also completely, head-over-heels, delighted to be allowed to do what I do - to be creative and share my creativity with the "World Out There". Including you. Thank you for being here.
