Lori Ann Nelson

Science Fiction Adventures for bruised hearts seeking belonging and hope

New Worlds

I'm Lori Ann, a science fiction author with a passion for courageous stories, capturing wildlife with my camera (like Texas dragons- er, gators), and exploring faraway places.

I write for the dreamers, the ones searching for belonging and healing, and fellow adventure seekers. Whether it is a small-town mystery, a farm of lightning flowers, a fast-paced escape across the desert, or even a true story from my newsletter; I hope each tale leaves you encouraged and ready for your own adventure!
