Her Everyday Hero

Laurie Batzel lives in the Poconos with her husband, their four two-legged children and their two four legged children, Stuart the Corgi and Midge the Marvelous Rescue Pup. Her first book, With My Soul, was published in 2019 and her essays can be found in several editions of Chicken Soup for the Soul, as well as online at McSweeney's Internet Tendencies, Longreads and Harvard University's Tuesday Magazine. When not writing romance that is equal parts swoons, sniffles and smiles, she can be found watching too much TV under too many blankets, testing the acceptable limits of caffeine consumption and perfecting her recipe for chocolate chip cookies.
