Lauren Laky has always enjoyed monsters, digital artwork, and a good late-night book. Now with a complete degree in Illustration from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design under her belt, she is free to combine those things into intense novels filled with unique characters, horrifying beasts, and scenes of sex and gore that will blow your mind.Her favorite quote? “The artist is never morbid. The artist can express anything.” (Oscar Wilde).While some might think that the blood-chilling scenes come from a twisted place of darkness inside a sick mind, her readers should know that she simply has fun writing them. For years her favorite hobby was writing roleplay with her best friend, creating characters and scenes without any limits. Her first set of books, the Shadowlands series, are inspired by the work they did together! Now with her dream fulfilled of becoming a self-published and self-illustrated author, Laky is determined to keep moving forward. Follow her so you don’t miss the next intense story of twisted adult fiction!Interested in the artwork?
