Thrilled to announce my debut picture book! It's a story of my heart and I can't wait for it to be in the world. Many thanks to my superstar agent @joycekay.bsky.social for championing the story and finding the perfect editor, and to the talented @danielmiyares.bsky.social for teaming up! #grateful!

My 5-year-old daughter and I had a blast making old fashioned sugar cookies for her Valentine’s tea party! The day was complete with fancily-dressed friends, a Valentine’s book exchange and older brothers running around in the backyard. Happy times! ❀️

Hey Bluesky! I'm Lora from sunny Southern Utah. My best days come with writing time, a good belly laugh (mine or my kids'), unreasonably hot yoga/hiking with my fam, homemade Italian food, a board game or two, and falling asleep to a good book. Please say hello! I'd love to connect :)
