Hi, I’m Lauren. I have loved books since before I learned to read and as a lifelong bookworm I’ve had the great privilege of spending my career close to what I love – words strung together and bound together into things of beauty. They have allowed me to explore people, places and ideas I wouldn’t be able to experience without them. As a professional book editor and publishing executive I get to work with writers and words and ideas all day. As a writer I love to research and write about groundbreaking, strong women – women who broke the rules and pursued their dreams without apology.

I hope reading about them inspires you as much as they inspired me while writing about them.
