\nTell us your name and then a bit about yourself.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Hi! My name is Lauren Helms, and I’m a romance author! I write flirty and nerdy contemporary romance. My first three books are part of my Gamer Boy series. My next release is a standalone, but part of the multi-author series, 425 Madison. I’ve been an author for three years now, and I still love it! <\/span><\/p>\n

Where is your favorite place to write and what food must be present?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite place, but its the only place, my desk at home. And while I’m writing, I don’t eat. But when the words aren’t flowing I snack on candy. <\/span><\/p>\n

What are you favorite things about attending signings?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I’ve only been to one signing. It was a small event at my local library. I enjoyed talking with readers and meeting author authors. I’m really excited about the Author Indy Event this September. <\/span><\/p>\n

What author would you love to meet (Who is your unicorn author)?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

My unicorn authors are Lauren Layne and Colleen Hoover.<\/span><\/p>\n

What author would you love to write with?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I would love to write with author Cassie Graham. <\/span><\/p>\n

What is your favorite memory so far as an author?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

That would have to be when I meet someone (in real life AND online) who I don’t have connections with, and they have read my books and loved them. It makes me feel like people are actually reading my words. <\/span><\/p>\n
