Someone recommended this magazine to me and I want to share with you. It includes an article I wrote about creating 3D characters, a prelude to the class above. There is information in the magazine about writing and plenty of book intros to tempt your palate. I found one or two in there I plan on buying, so I hope this helps you.

Join us at the main library of Orange County in Hillsborough, NC on December 3, 2023. Lori will hold a book signing of her upcoming release and give a video presentation of the wild horses as well as a Q & A session. Be sure not to miss this event! Mark it on your calendars. 

Come join us for Coffee Break Live on Friday mornings, streaming on Facebook and Youtube. 

Join me at the PJNET.tv Christian Expo on October 28, 2023. I will have signed books!

INTERVIEWED BY Thomas J. Bellezza ON THE WRITE MINDSET, February 9,  2023 AT 2:00 p.m. EST.  Come join us on YouTube and Apple Podcasts!

Join Lori for a live-streaming class on creating 3D characters who feel like family. This is a rare treat, and Lori is offering a discount for her Beta program. Learn about how to figure out your main character's arc, internal/external goals, personality type (made easier!), and dig deeper to make your character even more real. Lori has a degree in occupational therapy and has taken several psychology classes and will utilize her knowledge to teach you how to apply these strong points to keep a reader turning the pages of your book long into the night.

HCRW is a local Raleigh chapter under the branch of Romance Writers of America (RWA).
