AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT - Lori Soard

 Good morning, readers.

Happy Tuesday!

I'm introducing (or rather re-introducing) you to a dear friend.

Lori Soard and I go way back to my first days on the internet with AOL and writing workshops. I had been attending her weekly workshop for several months when she approached me about having my own workshop... and The Writer's Zone was born.

If I remember correctly, Lori's workshop met on Tuesday nights. Mine ran on Wednesdays. When AOL decided our services were no long needed, so to speak, all of us AOL leaders in the writing community went our separate ways. Lori and I teamed up again in Yahoo Groups with World_Romance_Readers and World_Romance_Writers.  After several years, Lori passed those groups on to me so she could focus on family and other things at the time. ( Both gone by the wayside with YahooGroups).

When she first became published, I was one of her street team members. 

Let's see what Lori has to share:
Lori Soard has a Ph.D. in Journalism and Creative Writing but she's hardly the stuffy, professor type. Her romantic comedies have received rave reviews from Romantic Times Magazine. She co-founded World Romance Writers. Her undergraduate degree was in education and she home schools her daughters and teaches at a cottage school one day a week. In her spare time, Lori enjoys singing and taking her two dogs for walks. The entire family loves basketball, going to the movies, and traveling. She loves to hear from her readers. You can email her through her website at lorisoard.com or connect on social media.

I'll be reviewing her newest release, Dandelion Serenade, tomorrow. In the mean time you can click on any of the following links to learn more. I especially encourage you to check out the link from CanvasRebel.



  

All my best!

SPOTLIGHT AUTHOR- Lori Soard



This week I am featuring a dear friend, Lori Soard.  Lori and I go way back to my first days on the internet with AOL and writing workshops. I had been attending her weekly workshop for several months when she approached me about having my own workshop... and The Writer's Zone was born.

If I remember correctly, Lori's workshop met on Tuesday nights. Mine ran on Wednesdays. When AOL decided our services were no long needed, so to speak, all of us AOL leaders in the writing community went our separate ways. Lori and I teamed up again in Yahoo Groups with World_Romance_Readers and World_Romance_Writers. After several years, Lori passed those groups on to me so she could focus on family and other things at the time. I have since passed those groups onto other capable hands for the same reason.

When she first became published, I was one of her street team members. 

Through all of this, two things have been constant. 1) our connection  and 2) our individual writing endeavors. 

I was delighted to go to FB this morning (you know, that place I really try to avoid) to find Lori has released a new book. 


You can read the blurb HERE

Prime and Kindle Unlimited members can read this for FREE over the next 3 months. I clicked the BUY button before I realized that but regardless, I know that was money well-spent because Lori always provides a clean, heart-warming read and Cupid's Quest is sure to be a new favorite. 

As part of the release, Lori has been featured on Writing Between Sundays blog. Just click on the blog link to read the interview and leave a comment.
