I won! NaNoWriMo over for another year and tons of writing to do still! I will keep writing this novel until the story is done. How about you?

      My NaNoWriMo Page


This is the official site of M. Lori Motley, fantasy and horror writer.
Whether your tastes run to sun-dappled meadows where fairies dance, or the gloomy underground where vampires stalk their prey, you will find M. Lori Motley there, writing madly in her purple notebook.

I help run The Purple Wyrm with my good friends Melanie, human, and Louie, a dragon from Brooklyn, NYC.

My most prolific writing genres are sword & sorcery, contemporary and urban fantasy, horror, dark fantasy, comedic fantasy, and paranormal & fantasy romance. I also take occasional forays into the world of erotica. (Don’t we all at one time or another?)

Roll the Dice Fantasy Fiction

Since practice makes perfect (or as near as we’ll ever get), and exercise is good for body and soul, it stands to reason that a writer must do writing exercises. These can be as simple as five minute word wars with a buddy, or complex as short-story-per-day goals.

I’ve used the dice rolling method to create writing prompts and story ideas for years. I decided it was finally time to share it with the multitudes.
