Writing The Wakening was such an enlightening process. I honestly never knew writing could be like this. But how could you know until you go through it, right? Stealing time for myself early in the morning or late at night, I would sit down at the computer and the words would just come out. I’m wasn’t necessarily in the driver’s seat and didn’t always know where the story was going. It just cames out, directing itself. What a privilege it has been, to be a part of this beautiful process. 💕
My friends and family have always been so wonderfully supportive. Thank you!
Oct 25, 2014- The first draft of The Wakening is done, currently editing… soon to start the next book in the series! Can’t leave our characters hanging!
January, 2025- Okay, so maybe I left them hanging a little. After years of editing and exploring the writing world, I took a break. Then the world took a break during the covid years.. life went on. Now I’m back and ready to finish what I started in June 2014.

Oct 18- Worked 12 hours today, 9 hours yesterday.. still found time to write!
Do you know how close I am to finishing this story? Very… probably one chapter left (or a few little mini chapters). It is an amazing feeling! Still lots of work to do … need to go back and fix things, detail the smaller story lines, fill in gaps, setting, etc..
But the main story is just about complete! Ready for the next step! YAY

Finding time to write between dusk and dawn 🙂 Tough with everything else going on in my life.. but I love this book and want to see what happens!!!!
Thanks for your continued words of encouragement! ~ A Lynn 10/11/14
I love this story and can’t wait to share it with you all. Can’t wait for the day I will see it in print. Still writing! Have the story outlined, so I know where it is going. At about 200 pages now. Still just need time to get it written. Waiting to hear from doctor on using my left hand this week. One-handed typing is slowing me down 🙂 Extended the self imposed deadline and now get to write in the autumn, my favorite season. Finding inspiration everywhere lately. Looking forward to going back and giving more depth to the characters. Thanks for all the encouraging words and support!

Thank you for checking out The Wakening. It is half way done and been so fun to write! But with a family and full time job finding time is tough. I gave myself to the end of the summer to finish… not sure I will make it. Fall is Sept 23.. so 19 days left. We will see. Keep posted..
