I've spent my career inside stories. Fiction and nonfiction. Published and unpublished. Traditional and indie. Quiet and life-changing.

What I've learned is that information doesn't move people. Accolades and awards don't move people. People move when they see themselves inside a story.

That belief guides everything I do.

I've worked with people at the height of their professional lives and people whose lives were shaped by survival. Some came to me because they wanted a book. Others came because they needed to understand what they were carrying. 

Memoirs are so often like that.

One client survived the Liberian Civil War as a child. Another was a North Korean refugee at age ten, separated from his family by the DMZ that went up overnight. Writing these stories changed their lives and mine. They remind me that this work isn't about polish or prestige. It's about stewardship.

I don't rush books into existence.

I don't treat them like content.

And I don't believe every idea deserves to be published simply because it can be.

But when something matters, truly matters, I know how to help a story breathe life into the reader.     

Much of my work is confidential.

What I can share reflects the range, seriousness, and impact of the projects I take on.

"Every project Laura has worked on for us has been a knockout. Every project. A ghostwriter who simply delivers exceptional writing time and time again. She's incredibly talented, has never missed a deadline (some even tight turnarounds), and is an astute master of her craft. Plus, she's friendly, courteous, and has a great sense of humor and story. You won't find anyone as professional and dedicated to your project as Laura. Stop reading this and hire her now."

"Laura pushed me when I needed to be nudged, even if it was uncomfortable for me as a writer. She helped me to see the little things that make all the difference in a good, memorable story. At each stage, she gauged my progress and adjusted her coaching accordingly, pointing out my strengths and insisting I categorize my weaknesses so I could improve them. I highly recommend her to anyone serious about improving their writing. A lot of time will be spent outside your comfort zone, but in the end, you'll learn more than you imagined about yourself and your craft.

Most of my behind-the-scenes thinking lives on my Buy Me a Coffee site, nicknamed Draft to Dreams. That's where you'll find deep craft dives, business-of-writing insights, the vulnerable bits of building a creative life, and a community of writers who make it all feel less solitary.
