Lorna Dolan, Fiction Writer And Long-Distance Friend
A Monster Alley Apartments Tenant
Wind rushed through the buildings, picking up the faint hint of petrichor from the recent spring rain. The freshly planted magnolia tipped its petals toward the ramp and stairs where Lorna stood appreciating its beauty.
Carrie waved from her window, enjoying the chance to welcome each new tenant as they came. Lorna waved back, slightly reserved by comparison.
A few minutes after Carrie disappeared from the window, she emerged from the front door with Sieran Lane just behind her, a welcoming smile on his face.

Who Lorna Is To Me
We met just after I created this account — she says I helped reignite her passion to keep writing on Medium, but I feel she’s been pivotal in me maintaining interest in writing in general. Perhaps we’ve both encouraged each other quite a lot, I suppose!
Lorna is a sweetie, but she’s got that “matter-of-factness” of that favorite teacher we all had in primary/elementary school. Kind, but firm.
Mostly kind, though. 😉
Her writing digs deep to bring out the emotional qualities through the fantastical imagery. It’s an adventure of the mind to read her work, and soothing to the soul to read her comments.
I don’t know where I would be without Lorna. Honestly, I might have given up long ago if not for her.
If you have a moment, Dear Reader, check to see what she’s up to now:
Until next time, follow each other, follow the dopamine, and follow yourself, always!
