...and multi-published, award winning author:

Lynn Dean

author of:

"Winds of Freedom"

✯

        What Lynn says... "Growing up in Texas, I dictated my first stories to my mama before I was old enough to write them down myself. She humored me, for which I am grateful, and I've been telling stories in one form or another ever since. Fast forward more years than I'll admit to. Children grown. House (relatively) quiet. And I have a slew of characters living in my head, all clamoring to tell their stories and insisting that I write them!

I write about the things I know. The things I love--God, family, history--and how those things fit together to demonstrate timeless truths.

Time is precious. As a reader, you give a great gift when you choose to spend time reading my books, and I'm grateful.

My ambition is to give you a gift of memorable stories in return."
