Let’s get to todays episode with Lauren K. Denton. I picked up one of Lauren’s novels in August and I loved reading it! Born and raised in Mobile, Alabama, Lauren now lives with her husband and two young daughters in Homewood, just outside Birmingham. In addition to her fiction, she writes a monthly newspaper column about life, faith, and how funny (and hard) it is to be a parent. On any given day, she’d rather be at the beach with her family and a stack of books. Her debut novel, The Hideaway, is USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Amazon Charts bestseller. Her second novel, Hurricane Season, released in April, 2018, and was listed on BookPage's 2018 list of Most Anticipated Fiction. And, I want to give a little plug for Lauren’s two books and the one coming out in March. The Hideaway Hurricane Season, and Glory road are her novels! If you like Southern fiction, you will love how Lauren writes the setting, how the characters are relatable and how she creates an interesting story line and it will have you hooked
Its episode 64 and we talk about how Laurens love for reading and writing came at an early age, and how she realized her calling was to write. She is a thoroughly gifted writer and I was thrilled to be able to chat with her. She’s a big deal and I’m thankful she was able to sit down with me and chat.
We talk about how she manages her writing and being a mother to her two young girls. I love how Laurens stories always have hope and redemption that shines through and I love that. We talk about what Lauren does when she gets stuck and cannot write any more. I love how she brings everyday moments into the light when writing a column for Homewoods newspaper, The Homewood Star. You will think you are chatting with a friend. Lauren is warm, inviting, and shares her story with us today and Im so grateful. You will love her and will want to read her books.
