Laurie’s life was a constant adventure of music, stories and adventures from both sides of her family. Her own little family moved many times and her childhood was far from boring. She was raised singing and playing music, as her father was. He used to regale them all as children, with his far away stories of other times and wild animals. As her imagination and dreams were always building, she always had a story to tell or would be watching and learning, as she seemed to have a knack for picking up and playing anything she heard in music or song. Later, she started writing as her mother has always done, putting her deep thoughts into songs and writings, as she grew her writings and songwritings soon started going more and more. She has submitted many songs and writings into Copyright and into the Library of Congress over the years and seems to have an endless supply of words. So between the love of a good story and wanting to write, she found she has an infinite supply of good stories and music to choose from. Most are from life experiences or from a childhood memory, as told to her or her own creation. Her writings are a pure reflection of her own emotions, feelings or moods, as life sometimes leads us into directions, we otherwise would have never traveled. She was raised in the hills, covered with pine trees and huge oaks on the banks of the Current River. With a life of simplicity and love. She still craves that stillness of nature and the peace in her life. She has found that in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, along the shores of Lake Superior, which reminds her of home with the evergreens and pine trees, rocks and hills around her. Lake Superior has become her source of relaxation and peace, in times she badly needed both. She has worked and achieved her 100 Ton Masters Captains Credentials and is now licensed to sail upon the Great Lakes, Rivers and eventually the Ocean, is her goal. Also among her other accomplishments, she has her own line of Designer Jewelry, just to mention a couple from the last few years. She has two grown sons and soon to be 10 grandchildren, along with her Parents and her three brothers and their families. She has a busy family and work life, but writing and music has always been her escape growing up and and way to put her thoughts into perspective, when life gets too fast. Her book of Short Stories and another about her grandchildren will someday be published, will be actual true parts of her life and lives of her family, as her thoughts and writings in Ripples of Time are.view less
