Laura Jensen Walker

Laura Jensen Walker has loved words ever since she read 103 books in Miss Vopelensky’s first-grade class. That’s when she first dreamed of becoming a writer. Her dream came true many years later when her first book was published at the age of forty.

Now after more than a decade away from publishing she’s thrilled to be back and writing again!

She’s delighted that at long last, her memoir, Good Girl, the book of her soul, releases in June 2022. This is the best, most transparent, and vulnerable book she has ever written. Laura also released a trio of fun cozy mysteries during the pandemic: Murder Most Sweet (A Bookish Baker Mystery) which she’s delighted to say was nominated for an Agatha Award, Hope, Faith, & a Corpse (A Faith Chapel Mystery)  and Deadly Delights, her second Bookish Baker Mystery. She’s currently working on some historical fiction.

Laura lives in Northern California with her Renaissance-man husband and their canine daughter Mellie.
