Meet Novelist Lindsay Marie Morris, Author of Historical Fiction Rooted in Italian Heritage
Lindsay Marie Morris is a novelist and journalist. Based in Los Angeles, she brings a dynamic storytelling voice to every project, whether she's crafting historical fiction set in Italy or reporting on health, wellness, travel, and small business for modern readers.
A graduate of Marquette University with a B.A. in Communications, Lindsay began her editorial career in magazine publishing, serving as travel editor at Shape magazine before expanding into digital media, editorial project management, and non-profit marketing and communications. Her work has appeared in Forks Over Knives, The Chicago Tribune, The Mature Mother, and numerous other publications.
Inspired by her Sicilian-American roots, Lindsay's debut novel, The Last Letter from Sicily (Storm Publishing, January 2025), traces a World War II-era story of love, resilience, and family secrets across continents and generations. Her second novel, Beneath the Sicilian Stars (Storm Publishing, July 2025), returns to the same moment in history, following a new cast of characters whose lives are forever changed by a wartime promise, a buried truth, and the enduring pull of home.
When she's not writing fiction or journalism, Lindsay presents author talks, leads workshops on personal storytelling and historical fiction, and interviews Italian culture and history ambassadors about heritage, entrepreneurship, recipes, and hidden histories at lindsaymariemorris.com/blog. She welcomes opportunities for book signings, interviews, community readings, and appearances at book clubs by request.
