Featured Interview With Terri Lorah
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
Hello, I’m Terri from small-town USA or Manheim PA. I grew up in Denver but I don’t live far from there. Married for 40+ years, and 3 adult children who gave me 3 adorable grandchildren make life just about perfect.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I wrote poems when I was a pre-teen and in my teen years and loved to draw. After getting married, and having kids, life got busy until my best friend encouraged me to start writing. While I wrote, she was the devil’s advocate and edited my book in the 90s. Then, we pushed it aside because, you know, life happened.
When Amazon began self-publishing, I haven’t stopped since.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I love reading almost anything. Women’s Fiction is what I write and I love reading Kirstin Hanna, Susan Mallery, Pamela Kelley, and so many more.
I am inspired by so many. Elana Johnson, who writes cowboy western romance is such an inspiration for all writers in many genres. There are so many others as well. The writing community loves to help each other succeed.
