Lauren M. Hancock
Author, Poet, Artist
Thank you for taking some time out to visit my poetic corner of the world.
I’m Lauren M. Hancock.
I love expressing myself through poetry, which is why I’ve dedicated my website to this art form, moving forward from the former Alice Well Art content I used to post.
Please view my poetry or earlier works, read a little more about me as a writer and artist, view my sample artworks, or read about my book of illustrated short stories.
