About this author

edit data

L W grew up in Southern California which has given her an appreciation of great weather and outdoor living.

She started writing at 15 when she began keeping a journal of various 'adventures' in her life, such as riding motor cycles through raw sewage, and gluing her hand to the bathroom sink. Most of the outrageous occurrences in her latest book, FLIRTING WITH DISASTER, were taken from those sometimes painful personal experiences.

LW has a degree in International Relations and Political Science and is a confirmed political junkie. She is married and lives with her three children, a needy dog, and three very independent cats.

She is an avid reader and has reviewed several hundred books here at Goodreads over the years.

Exciting To See A Dream Come True

Flirting With Disaster

This is my first attempt at publishing my stories and I'm excited to see the interest it has generated.

I have received several notes wanting more and wondering when the next one will be out.

I'm typing my little fingers raw...working hard on getting it done...and hopefully it will be out in time for summer beach reading.

Thank you to all who have taken a chance on my book.... read more »

This actually was a hard book for me to get into, as life kept intruding. Once I picked it up when I was away from the phones and kids...I got into it and liked it. I'm not one for giving away the story of the books I read, as I think that's what peop...more

The cover on the book I read was nothing like this one showing...oh well...it was a nice tale, well written and certainly made me take an interest in other books she might have out there.

L.W. gave to: Going Back for Romeo by L.L. Muir (Goodreads Author) read in April, 2012	My rating:
I liked the over all story but found myself lost from time to time. It was hard to follow in places and I found myself getting impatient in other places. However, it was a good read and I am curious to read the sequel to this one.
