Lauren Leach-Steffens

My name is Lauren Leach-Steffens, and I have been writing since 3rd grade, when my Groundhog Day poem was posted on the classroom door. i recall that I went home and told my mother I wanted to be a poet when I grew up. Her response: "Do you like to eat?" As I did enjoy food, I gathered I wouldn't have any if I dedicated myself to writing. Still, here I am.

I've only recently started writing novels. I enjoy writing modern day life with a touch of other realities in both my romance and fantasy novels. My day job as an associate professor of human services has given me the opportunity to delve into psychology, sociology, and economics, which helps me to add realism to my stories. The fantasy comes from my quirky way of looking at life.

I hope you, the reader, enjoy reading my works as much as I enjoy writing them.
