Pure Imagination

About Me

Family Picture 2016About me:

I’m not good at these things, that’s why I’ve waited years to do this…but here it goes: I’m from a small southern town and by small I mean one stop light kind of small. I grew up in the shadow of the Appalachians. The only things to do were wander the woods or read. I did plenty of both.

I’m married to the most fantastic guy in the entire world–trust me one this. We’ve been married 9 years. We have two lovely little boys. Finn is 3 and Rowan will be 1 in December. We also have 6 cats. Yes, I said 6. They are: Foxy, Midnight, Picadilly, Mercy, Willow, and Harlequin (Harley).  I do blog designs at Imagination Designs, but I mostly spend my time reading and writing to you here.

If I’m not chasing after a toddler I might be reading…or sleeping.

I also have a blog for Southern Book Bloggers. You can find bookish events in the south and other southern bloggers!

 

About Pure Imagination:

I started this blog on December 16, 2008. Back then I had no idea what book blogging was. I started my blog at the same time as some friends from Shelfari (you may know Angela and Candace, yes?). We all started them to keep up with a book challenge we were participating in. Then a few months later I discovered other book blogs and I was swept off of my feet. It just snowballed from there.

Pure Imagination has been short listed for Best YA Book Blog during Book Blogger Appreciation Week in 2010 and 2011.

Welcome to Pure Imagination! I started this blog in 2008 because I desperately needed somewhere to talk about books with people that love them as much as I do. Since then I've become a Mom to two incredible, rambunctious little boys, Finn and Rowan. They keep me busy, but I do try to squeeze in reading and blogging when I can. Take a look around the blog! I hope you find some new books to love.

Hi There!

I'm Lori! I've been gushing about books here on Pure Imagination since 2008. I've been married for almost 10 years to a wonderful guy who puts up with my book hoarding. We have two incredible little boys, Finn and Rowan. We also have 6 cat roommates. They're in charge! If I'm not chasing 2 rambunctious boys, changing a diaper, or cleaning up endless piles of Hot Wheels, then I might be reading...or taking a nap.
