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.

"The day, which was one of the first of spring, cheered even me by the loveliness of its sunshine and the balminess of the air. I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy."
— Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
