Author: lauraLin
I am the mother of three, Concord University alumna, over Youth Services at a local library, and weekend pharmacy technician.
I have self-published two books - In Death There is Life, and A Day at The Fire Department - and have recently signed with a publisher for my third book - Routines. I love to write as it allows me to live vicariously through my characters in a world that is of my imagining.
In addition to writing, I enjoy photography, hiking, and spending time with my family.

Uncharted Territory
Some of us come with an entire out building filled with tools, and some of us are lucky to have a hammer to our name. And even then, there will be times, we can't find the key to get into that outbuilding to access the tools.
Wash Your Attitude
Few things are more satisfying to me than waking up to a clean kitchen or seeing an empty hamper, however, to achieve this it takes constant upkeep
From Dormant Ground Springs Flowers
While winter presses on, and the apathetic mood might hang about a bit longer, I have faith that like a daffodil, wonderful things are happening even in the coldest ground
What do you know?
We are not alone with our feelings, imperfections, and struggles and that alone makes us all the same. Disease, love, hunger, hope, death....none of it distinguishes between religions, skin color, gender, education, jobs....and neither should we.
