I’m Laura. I love to tell stories. I love what’s wild and beautiful.
My debut novel IN THE GREAT QUIET (Lake Union 2026) is a sweeping, atmospheric story in the tradition of COLD MOUNTAIN and THE FOUR WINDS. It’s inspired by the true story of my grandmother’s grandmother, following a tenacious pioneer’s race into the great unknown.
