Wife, mother, former U.S. Army sergeant, and dental hygienist, Laura can now add published author to the list. She continues to work as a dental hygienist, which she’s done for over 19 years, hoping to transition out of that within a handful of years and make writing a full-time endeavor. Her publishing dreams came true (at the age of 50!) in 2017. Since then, she’d had the fortune to work with multiple publishers and connect with fantastic people. A voracious reader herself, she strives to write stories she can be proud of and enjoyed by many; ones that are not only sexy and fun, but thoughtful as well. When younger, her love of writing started with poetry after encouragement from her 4th grade teacher. She continues to write poetry, prose, and short stories, enjoying the challenges of various styles. She’s honored to have been recognized as Author of the Month with Spillwords.

A Christmas Heckler by John Christopher

“With your vote tomorrow—” The Governor raised his hands to quell thunderous applause. “With your vote, we can end this foreign invasion once and for all. America for Americans!”

This wasn’t just a slogan for Governor Bishop DeCulpat. It was a life’s crusade. In his border state, it was his family, his neighbors who’d borne the brunt of the social costs of the flow of migrants across the border. They’d been pushed to a boiling point. Now, it was time for action.

Hearing the signature catchphrase of the campaign, the audience erupted once again, the ovation magnified by the white marble column of the Statehouse rising at the Governor’s back, drowning out The Vince Guaraldi Trio’s Christmas is Coming blaring from the speakers...
