About Lauren

Hello! I'm Lauren, and I've been around YWS for (so very nearly) seven years. I've formally studied creative writing in university for almost as long, and am almost finished with my Masters of Fine Arts in fiction writing so you might say I know my stuff (or, at least, I know how to act like I know my stuff).

Someday I hope to teach creative writing at the college level, but until then I'm happy to read and critique the work of my peers and young writers at places like YWS. I love to talk writing and will blabber on about anything remotely related until someone makes me stop.

My pronouns are she/her but I will happily respond to they/their.

I always knew that deep down in every human heart, there is mercy and generosity. No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
