Lora Lynn Fanning has been writing online since the internet, and her seven kids were babies. Her first blog, Vitafamiliae, brought her a wide-ranging audience who laughed with her at the lunacy of raising a large brood. This online venture led Lora Lynn to teach writing; for 12 years, she taught writing and Rhetoric both online and in the classroom.  She honed her craft as she helped her students shape their essays and papers.  She helped launch and manage Every Teacher Every Day in 2021 and now serves as a content editor for a content marketplace. While she shapes web content and marketing campaigns, she is always on the hunt for the next historical footnote that will send her down a rabbit hole of research and midnight writing.

Lora Lynn is a freelance feature writer for The List. You can also find her words in print (Mother Letters, Born Again Dirt) and in various corners of the world wide web (SimpleHomeschool.net, Radical.net, Blissfully Domestic). She is represented by Cindy Bullard of Birch Literary.
