Lynette was born in London but raised in Burnley, Lancashire. From the tender age of five she was raised by her grandmother who gave her books in which to help keep her quiet. However, Lynette found she had quite a passion for reading and subsequently began writing once she started school. Whilst at junior school Lynette's teacher was so impressed with her writing skills that her stories were read out to her classmates. Due to family commitments Lynette was unable to take her writing further and joined the Forces instead. Lynette married a soldier and when her children came along she had little time to write but jotted down a few tales for her boys to read at bedtime. Lynette's husband was so impressed with her ability to capture people's imaginations that he encouraged her love of writing by buying her a laptop in the hope she would write something a little more substantial. So with a great deal of encouragement and a push in the right direction her first novel Sinners of Magic was born. Lynette decided her first novel would be something magical and her inspiration came from writers from her childhood such as Enid Blyton. ‘The Faraway Tree’ and ‘The Wishing Chair’ were her first real taste of fantasy and later on in life J.K. Rowling's Potter series proved to her that magic was still alive in peoples hearts. Her second novel, Betrayers of Magic is currently available on kindle and will be out in paperback by May 2013. Lynette currently lives near Grimsby and works part-time for the NHS.
