About Lori Wolf-Heffner
K-W author Lori Wolf-Heffner writes the uplifting series, Between Worlds, a series about family, memory, and friendship, and how those who lived long before we were born are still alive in us today. Lori dreamed of being a writer ever since she was a child and even wrote to children’s author Jean Little to ask how to make writing easier. Ms. Little replied that writing is never easy, but it took Lori another 25 years to accept that. In 2015, Lori’s journey into fiction began, when she was accepted into the Canadian Senior Artists’ Resource Network’s mentorship program. In 2016, she published a short, creative non-fiction memoir about an ancestor, and in 2018, she published the first instalment of Between Worlds. Lori uses her family’s history to inspire her writing.
