Laura is a writer and theatremaker, and teaches acting and literature at City Lit adult education college in London.

Her debut young adult novel was one of three finalists in the Mslexia Children’s Novel Competition and longlisted for the Times / Chicken House Children’s Fiction Competition. It will be published by Neem Tree Press, an imprint of Unbound, in 2025.

Laura is a firm believer in ‘imagination activism’ and loves books that ask big questions, usually starting ‘What if . . . ?’ She enjoys the challenge of creating alternative possible futures in her writing, and hopes that by imagining different worlds we’ll be able to build a better one.
