It was dirt floors, pig heads on dinner plates, children hidden in attics, panties on heads, destruction of refrigerators that call you a ‘sonovabitch’, all manner of brutal and poignant human acts. More than once, she had to fend off the amorous advances of maximum security prisoners, the attacks of desperate people wielding knives, shotguns, and handlebars. Later, when she worked in administration, her skills were put to use writing government documents. No adrenaline there, except for times when she stood in front of TV cameras to answer questions about sensational events. She escaped it all on weekends writing fiction for magazines and anthologies. It was then, after a trip to Mexico, ¬Mountain of the Seven Caves was created.
Now retired, Lorna writes music and fiction from her homes in Orlando and Key West. She finds that getting to Key West is half the fun, riding the Overseas Highway, and ‘seeing it raw’ from the seat of her motorcycle, “The Kid”.ver menos
