About Me

Hello, my name is L. A. Smith. "The Good President" is my second book. My first book is entitled "Island Jet 370". I live in Tennessee with my husband. He is loving and supportive of my efforts. I graduated in the top 10% in the early 80's . I have worked in factories, bartended and as a housekeeper. I have listened to countless people speak of their successes and failures as well as their concerns on everyday issues largely ignored by those in power. 

I enjoy writing as a coping mechanism for everyday stresses and the loss of a daughter to opioid abuse. Writing offers comfort and a sense of control in an uncontrollable world. While politics is not my forte, I am a fixer by nature. This book longs to fix things. My next writing effort will be a sequel to "Island Jet 370". You won't want to miss it!
