Lisa LaRae spent her childhood in the Ozarks, Missouri.  Lisa was the youngest of three children, an oops child, so she was 9-10 years younger than the oldest.  Lisa spent much of her time finding her own way and her own friends throughout her youth. Lisa’s family hit hard times in the early 80’s she had to drop out of high school to work in construction. Lisa then moved into insurance and met her husband, Randy, had two sons Zachary and Chad.  Lisa and Randy are happily married now 30 years. Lisa went to college in her 40’s and that’s when she started to write.  Lisa also writes children’s books in her spare time as well as poetry.  Writing is a hobby that became an outlet but mostly a dream come true.
