John Douglas Pritchard

Creative Multi-Media Artist

John Douglas Pritchard is a Canadian multi-media artist, author, and musician whose work blends storytelling, music, poetry, and lived experience into a single creative journey. Based in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley, he creates across multiple platforms — from reflective books and visual poetry to original rock music released under the name Livinghost.

His writing explores life transitions, personal resilience, and the moments that shape who we become. Through titles such as Starting Over Again – System Restore Yourself, Pictures and Poems, All Walks of Life – Six Nights a Week, and his music-related publications, John invites readers to slow down, reflect deeply, and reconnect with their own path.

With decades of experience in music production, songwriting, and creative media, John’s work moves beyond traditional authorship. His Livinghost project merges powerful guitar-driven sound with storytelling themes that echo throughout his books, creating a connected artistic world where words, images, and sound meet.

Whether through a song, a poem, a photograph, or a spoken message, John’s goal is simple: to create art that reminds people they are not alone — and that every chapter in life holds the possibility of renewal.
