Hi! I’m Lynette.
Welcome to my website. I am an author, blogger, creativity advocate, and Yorkie wrangler. If you want stories that balance action with character development and social themes that make you think, you’ve come to the right place.
On this site, I share posts on little know women of history, tips for creatives, how-tos for writers of fiction, and the joy of reading. Now and then I share fascinating bits and bios from science and history.
The best way to connect with me is to join the universe’s best group of readers, the Reading Rebels. Get my weekly blog posts delivered to your inbox. And once a month, you’ll receive a letter form me sharing behind the scenes of my life, special writing or book events, and a photo or two of one of my Yorkies.
If receiving all the e-mail isn’t your thing, comment on my blog posts, join me on social media, or follow my author profile on your favorite book selling or book lists sites.
Take your time, explore this site. I hope you decide to stick around, but most of all thank you for exploring creativity, history, writing, and reading. Have a fantabulous rest of your day!
More about me. More about my books.
