INTRODUCING AUTHOR Jessica Lauryn
I always loved books as a child and when I was six, watching soap operas with my mother, I fell in love with romance. I kept the idea of one day writing for the soaps in the back of my mind for years. But along the way I discovered romance novels and realized that writing a full-length novel was something I had to try for myself.
When I graduated from college and was looking for my first job, I spent a lot of time asking myself what I’d do with my life if I could do anything at all. Writing kept coming into my mind and I perused several non-fiction books regarding how to get started with a career in writing. I remember reading in one of the books that writers spend their entire lives in basements doing nothing but writing. I believe the comment was intended to discourage people but I remember thinking that being left alone to simply use your imagination and write for hours on end sounded like more fun than anything I could imagine!
