Victoria Laurie Biography

Victoria Laurie is the New York Times bestselling author of several popular paranormal mysteries including the Psychic Eye Mysteries, featuring the psychic Abby Cooper, Ghost Hunter Mysteries, featuring medium M. J. Holliday, the young adult fantasy series called Oracles Of Delphi Keep series, which sadly only includes three books (out of 4 planned), the Cat & Gilley Life Coach Mystery series, the Spellbound series with one novel only, and the latest Dovey Van Dalen series which started in 2024.

Victoria Laurie was born in Michigan, USA, in 1966, however, she was raised in several states and two other countries as well due to her father working as an international auto salesman which gave the family the opportunity to travel all over the place.

In the early 1980s, Victoria returned to Michigan where she settled down for good. She attended college in Michigan and worked there until she was in her 30s when she decided to move to a warmer area, which turned out to be Florida.

While living in Florida, she honed her psychic skills which she had been slowly aquiring since childhood. and started giving psychic readers to customers in a metaphysics shop. Later, Victoria Laurie moved once again to Michigan, then to Boston, and finally settled down in Austin, Texas.

As a child, she grew up reading books by Erma Bombeck, who eventually influenced her writing greatly. However, when really pushed Victoria towards writing was One for the Money by Janet Evanovich. After watching a morning show where she was talking about her first book, Victoria Laurie bought the first three books in the series. It was at a time when she was laid off and was feeling down. This is when she decided to give writing books a try.

When she wrote her debut novel, Abby Cooper, Psychic Eye, she sent the manuscript to well over 100 agents, but they all rejected her. Only one agent asked Victoria for a rewrite, and she rewrote 11 chapters in less than two weeks. Next, her first novel  250,000 copies. In cases like these, I keep wondering how the other agents and publishers, who rejected something that would become not only popular but international bestsellers, felt thereafter. Methinks, pretty bad.

All of the Victoria Laurie books focus on the paranormal and with a good reason. Each main protagonist has some ESP abilities. Abby Cooper is a professional psychic who is caught up in murders that she has to solve. M.J. Holliday is a medium and a ghost buster no less. Thus it came as no surprise to learn that Victoria Laurie is a real psychic who not only writes books but also gives psychic readings and consultations over the phone to people all over the world.

Her stories are all based on her background and knowledge as a psychic. She basically writes about what she knows best, so it’s natural that the Victoria Laurie books are bestsellers all over the world.

I am very fond of the Abby Cooper novels, having been the first series of this kind that I’ve read, at a time in my life when I enjoyed reading about paranormal topics – both in fiction and non-fiction very much. However let me just point out that regardless of what you think of psychics in real life, the books are totally worth reading – they’re fun cozies with great main characters and wonderful storylines.

In an interview with AuthorsDen, Victoria Laurie admitted that Abby Cooper was modeled entirely based on herself.

The author’s novel, When (formerly known as Death Date), features Maddie Flynn, a high school junior who can see a set of unique numbers on the foreheads of every person she meets, numbers which turn out to be more important than anyone realizes: they represent their death dates. Currently, the book has a sequel titled Whenever, which was released in 2023. The first novel, When, was optioned for a TV adaptation by Warner Brothers.

The Ghost Hunter Mystery series was inspired by the British Most Haunted series, which Victoria enjoyed watching. The Cat & Gilley Life Coach series is a spin-off from Abby Cooper. The Oracles of Delphi Keep is a children’s paranormal series.
