J. Lynne was born in Central NY and completed her B.S. in Computer Science with a concentration in Computer Game Programming in 2012. Her passion for writing started as a young child in the fifth grade, where she and a friend wrote a short play about a haunted house. The first line starts: Have you heard of the house with the blinking lights on top of the hill? Laughter ensued from the classroom as she and her friend read the play aloud. Horror and dark themes hold a special place in her heart. She grew up reading Christopher Pike and, later in her early teens, Stephen King. Her first published short story 'Everlasting Apple' is a young adult dark fantasy with a dash of suspense.
