Donna
Lawrence writes emotionally driven coming-of-age and women’s literary fiction
set in historical small-town America, exploring identity, resilience, human
connection, and the hidden truths that shape our lives.
Her debut
novel, Miss Virginia and the Sweet Sisters: A Novel, is a suspenseful coming-of-age
story set in 1960s Kentucky. She is also the author of Looking In from Outside: Poetry & Prose, which is a reflective collection of poetry and prose. Two of her poems can be found on
the 9/11 Memorial & Museum website for 2020 and 2021. Her latest release,
Pen Pals: A Novella and Other Stories, blends suspense, emotional reflection,
and speculative themes through a novella and a collection of short fiction. She
is currently working on her fourth book.
A history enthusiast and lifelong creative, Donna also enjoys drawing in pen and ink or using graphite pencils, as well as writing music lyrics. She has a deep appreciation for thoughtful storytelling across books, film, and music.
Born and raised in Kentucky and now a longtime resident of Colorado, Donna draws inspiration from the people, places, and experiences that have shaped her life and writing. She also writes monthly on her blog under the nickname “DaMarie,” where she shares reflections and creative insights while working on future manuscripts beneath Colorado’s brilliant blue skies.
