Laurinda LawrenceLaurinda grew up on an oyster farm where she enjoyed playing in the mangroves with her three big brothers. A firm believer in happily-ever-afters, she fell in love with the power of story when her mum bought her Gone with the Wind from a second-hand ookstore on the Hawkesbury River. Marrying her high-school sweetheart, Laurinda began her own love story, making her home in Newcastle with her husband, three teenagers, and walking teddy bears, Banjo and Delilah. When she's not working as a school chaplain, writing, and enjoying her family, Laurinda loves nothing more than sitting around a campfire with good music, a glass of wine, and great company. Laurinda believes we all have a powerful story to tell and that all in all, love is a beautiful mess.
