Around 4th grade, J. Lynn began writing stories.  She also developed an interest in history around that time when she was gifted the book “The Discovery of the Titanic: Exploring the Greatest of All Lost Ships” (which she still owns).  Her creative writing also developed in part through having multiple pen pals in her school days (in the “time before email” times!). 

Outside of reading voraciously and driving kids to multiple after-school activities, J. Lynn enjoys a perfectly steeped cup of hot tea while writing and editing “The Forgotten” book 2.  

Hobbies: Scrapbooking, reading, writing

Favorite movies:  Star Trek, Star Wars original trilogy (no "special" versions), Galaxy Quest, Napoleon Dynamite, Elf

Favorite all-time TV shows:  Star Trek: TNG (yep, I’m a next generation), Castle, Big Bang Theory, So You Think You Can Dance (I know you’re thinking, how does THAT fit in there?  Well, I have spent part of my life as a dancer -- and its currently on hold unless you count Wii Just Dance!), Once Upon A Time, Forensic Files, and MST3K.

Favorite authors:   Rick Riordan, J. K. Rowling, Cornelia Funke, Jo Graham, Lisa Genova, & Michelle Moran
 

Favorite subjects:  Ancient Egypt, science fiction, Greek ancient history, tap & lyrical dance, acting (yeah, I’m one of those dramatic peeps too).

Favorite things:  I love the sound of water lapping against a shoreline.  I love a warm day to sit out on the deck and listen to the birds sing... and the Minnesota Twins.
