Hello everyone, welcome to Goodreads. My name is Laura Crean, I am a single mum and an author, artist and poet. I love to read (when I can find the time LOL)- I especially like to read Science-Fiction and Fantasy but I also like Mystery-Suspense and I also love to read about the Paranormal, Ancient-History and Myths and Legends, books on Spirituality - basically I read anything!! LOL

I currently have 3 books of poetry for sale , my first children's Novel - a Fantasy Adventure (which is the first of, hopefully three.) And I am also currently involved in creating a series of Toddler and Infant books based in the same Realm as my Junior Novel. I also have some novels for older readers under way - So I have a lot going on and I love what I am do

What do you see when you look in your heart?
If you seek to find order in chaos
Be sure that you know where to start”
Laura Crean, The Realm of the Purple Dragon

“There comes a time in a man's life when to get where he has to go--if there are no doors or windows--he walks through a wall.”
Bernard Malamud

“When I’m lonely I stand in the corner and play my saxophone and feel sorry for myself. I would ask you to accompany me on the piano, but if I did that I wouldn’t be lonely, would I? And what’s the point of a saxophone if not to celebrate despair?”

Unfortunately I haven't read it yet! As soon as I got my copy, my Mum nabbed it off of me and I haven't seen it since LOL - think I will have to buy another copy. Please feel free to join my poetry group on here - it doesn't see too much activity, but it is nice to share poetry and have a catch up on there. https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...

Hi Zoe, thank you for asking. I have lots of projects on the go all the time and I flit between them depending on my mood LOL. I have a new poetry book out on Lulu.com and new kiddies books and I am trying to complete several novels at the same time, so yeah I'm quite busy. How about you? Xx Laura xX
