What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
WRITE. That is seriously the best advice. And just write what you feel don’t worry about the punctuation, spelling, or details. Get the story and characters out on the page first. Everything else can be done later. But sometimes you get an idea and if you don’t right it down right away, it disappears. So I am a big proponent of just freestyling until things come together.
Author Bio:
Lorena Bathey attended St. Mary’s College in Moraga graduating with a degree in English.
She started writing her first book, Happy Beginnings: How I Became My Own Fairy Godmother when her world fell apart and she needed to process changes in her life. Lorena found characters Marissa, Andrea, Lily, Deidre and Beatrice were visiting her and wouldn’t leave and her first novel, Beatrice Munson, came to life.
After finishing that book she was inspired to write more novels and she knew that pursuing her passion was the best way to live her life. So a writer she became.
Today Lorena has written several novels, Beatrice Munson, House on Plunkett Street, The X, Coaster, and Meeting Ms. Monroe. She is beginning research on two historical novels.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?I was on vacation at an amusement park and I thought about the story. I asked my family what they thought and after a few raised eyebrows as we were standing in line for a ride, they thought it had a chance. I kept mulling it over and started writing Coaster on my phone on the way home.
