Hey, I'm Lauren.
Writer & tenderfoot poet.

Writing through trauma, healing, and Christian de/reconstruction.

Look for my debut memoir coming in 2025 from Lake Drive Books.

i’m glad you’re here.

Post-evangelicals need voices. They need signposts. They need stories from people who, like them, are swimming somewhere between doubt and faith, despair and hope, deconstruction and whatever comes next.

That's why I write.

My Story

Meet Lauren.

A thirty-something, doubtful-yet-hopeful Jesus person. Writing my way through despair towards a better way.

I daylight as a professional conversion copywriter, penning words even non-readers read: descriptions on product packaging and Amazon pages, brand taglines, social media ads… But after 5 o’clock, I moonlight as an aspiring WRITER writer. I’m preparing to query my first non-fiction, a travel memoir that follows my journey through India, spiritual deconstruction, and trauma recovery.

I used to be: a confident evangelical, a homeschool student, a foster mom, a world traveler, and a professional videographer. I don’t really claim any of these identities anymore. But enough about me.

If my work sounds interesting to you, make sure to add your email to my subscribers list. I won’t pester you, promise. I don’t have time to write tons of emails. But you will be the first to know when I hit benchmarks in this publishing journey.
