Easily the most prolific author at Unlikely Stories, Laura Fletcher is the final word in poetic lyricists. She pulls off rhyme schemes that most contemporary poets wouldn't dare attempt, and she does so smoothly and naturally. It's easy to connect with her simple imagery, and the heartfelt emotion her poems represent.
Laura would like to present her new bio:
"I hate to stay on one topic. Brace yourself.
I'm your everyday high school student, ready to graduate (next year, maybe). I have a boyfriend, two cats, an unbroken family, yadayada. I don't associate myself with any political party. I hope no one took the Libertarian thing seriously. West Virginia is my home and has been since first grade. I like this place and hope to stay nearby for college. I also like reading, writing, listening to music, corresponding, movies, animals, nicknames, Cinnabons, and people. However, I hate politics, history (for now), school school school, Little Debbie oatmeal creme pies, and people. People will always fascinate me,so please send me some feedback on my work. A million thanks to Jonathan for letting me write for him." You can e-mail Laura at lfletch4@wvu.edu, or read more terse and dry autobiographical information at her web page.
