Hello. I’m Lori-Lyn.

I’m a writer and artist living in Lexington, Kentucky, with my partner and our pug.

You can read more of my story here.

I hold a BA in studio art and an MFA in fiction writing. My written work has been featured in print and digital publications including Words Dance and A More Perfect Union. I have exhibited at places like Art and Invention Gallery and City Gallery. You can see a portfolio of my work here and a gallery of paintings here.

I write Creative Living Diaries, a free newsletter for midlife creatives, late bloomers, magical thinkers, rememberers, and beautiful oddballs. You could start with More on Being Weird or the Worst I Ever Felt to get a sense of what I write there. It’s free to read and includes my monthy Love List posts.

I am publishing a book called Cosmic Heart as a serial to my paid subscribers. If you’re interested in the places where cultural indoctrination, mystical phenomenon and my own spiritual explorations intersect, you might like it. You can read the first chapter, Red Light, Green Light here.
