Lori F. Thomasson is a writer, author, and creative communicator. She graduated from Full Sail University with a BFA in creative writing and is currently earning her MFA. A storyteller since age eight, she has been inspiring others through her oral and written stories, poetry, skits, and more. She has written over ten performance pieces for churches and schools in Maryland and Virginia.

Thomasson is also a self-published author. Her flash fiction has appeared in Down in the Dirt, and her collection of short stories, Broken Bricks, is available on Smashwords.com. Her first book, “Filling the Cracks in My Head,” is a collection of poetry that details her personal journey of surviving mental health struggles and addiction.

Thomasson's second book, “Do One Thing: The 30-Day Plan for Getting Unstuck and Living Your Purpose,” is an inspiring self-help guide. Rooted in her faith and ongoing dedication to helping women survivors of trauma and addiction, Thomasson’s third book, “Soul Therapy,” combines Bible scriptures with four therapeutic techniques: coloring, journaling, affirmations, and meditation. Recently, she released her fourth book and first children’s book, “Busy Puppies.” It is beautifully AI-illustrated and easy to read, teaching young children opposites and verbs as they follow some lively puppies through their day.

Her work mainly centers on family, faith, finding strength, and overcoming adversity, but Lori also has a love for other genres, including comedy and children's entertainment. When she's not in school, spending time with herself and her family, or writing, Lori mentors a small group of young women on mindset change through Dreamers’ Awakening, Inc., the nonprofit she started in 2025.
