WRITER
MEET THE
My name is Lauren Smyth, and I'm an award-winning author and radio broadcaster with a passion for writing, adventure, and unconventional storytelling.
Since signing my first publishing contract at age 13, I've written three young adult action/adventure novels and contributed to the Into the Unknown and Christmas Miracles anthology. I write advertising copy for a college, freelance, and run my own radio show. When I'm not writing or broadcasting, you'll find me flying right seat in a Piper PA-30 aircraft or heading upriver on my paddleboard.
