Rocky Mountain Writer #169

Posted on May 6, 2019 by Mark Stevens

Lori Johnson – Independent Writer of the Year Finalist

Amazon bestselling author Lori (L.A.) Johnson—one of three Independent Writer of the Year nominees for Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers–writes humorous sci-fi and urban fantasy including the Neon Octopus Overlord Series, Neon Octopus Ally Series, and the Shadow Slayer Series.

In fact, the Shadow Slayer Series is launching this month.

Lori has participated in several bestselling humorous sci-fi anthologies. She has always been fascinated by stories in all of their forms and has a journalism degree from the University of Florida with a minor in Film.

Lori has volunteered at RMFW Gold Conference for years working the registration desk, helping with the bookstore, and stuffing conference bags.

As she recounts on the podcast, it was at a recent Colorado Gold conference when Lori made a key decision about her writing career.
