Lauren Cummings is a 24 year old world traveler, sometimes journalist, now and then musician, so so photographer, and veteran show horse handler. Currently she is getting her MFA in fiction or rather she spends two weeks a year hanging out by the pool at a swanky Palm Springs hotel with famous authors and literary types (apparently they do give graduate degrees for that). Currently Lauren is employed in the world of educational audio/visual. She is also the co-creator and web manager of The Whistling Fire. (www.whistlingfire.com).
Lauren wears tweed Converse, finds the best place to read is in the bathroom after showering, has contemplated having her sunglasses surgically attached to her face, collects music like some people collect art or antiques, and is a master of the multitask. Her future is uncertain but bright.
