Laurie Kirk’s early life in Florida was the stuff dreams are made of. Bad dreams. An only child with a father who had walked out, she didn’t know she was a womb twin survivor with PTSD. After devoting her life to raising five children, she graduated Acting Conservatory in 2022. And in 2024, Kathleen Turner chose her for a small group acting intensive in NYC. Cool right?
Laurie connected with her dead twin brother back in 2021 when her mediumship kicked in. Her writing journey started soon after that. She wrote a TV comedy pilot about reuniting with her dead brother and dead parents, TIL LIFE DO US PART. Her comedy screenplay, THE MEAT DEPARTMENT, features twin brothers overthrowing the federal government from a grocery store in Pennsylvania.
Her first novel, a psychological horror thriller called BABY MARVIN, was published in May of 2026. It is based on her screenplay about the nature of duality, revenge and loss.
