About   (request update)
From the start, I managed my creative impulses by drawing, writing songs, poems and short stories. While my interests in drawing and writing songs have waned, my love affair with the written word only grew stronger.

It was the recurring memories of encouragement from an eighth grade English teacher, a fellow classmate who said during a critical writing class, ¡§I¡¦m going to see your name on bookshelves,¡¨ and a destined encounter with Romance Writers of America at a chocolate fair that put me on track to fulfill my purpose.

Multicultural fiction is close to my heart, so the opportunity to share these stories is not taken lightly. Please feel free to look me up at lauramajor.com or http://www.myspace.com/lmwriter.
