Laurenne Sala, author of You Made Me a Mother, is a storyteller,
poet, and writer of everything from television commercials to jokes
for the stage to the occasional viral video. When she isn’t writing
her own essays and making people cry, Laurenne leads workshops that
help others write their very personal stories. She loves
blueberries, her cat named Cheddar, riding her bike along the
beach, and being a mom. Laurenne lives with her husband and
daughter in Los Angeles, where she likes to look at the ocean and
wonder what is on the other side.
