Official Bio

Lyneta and her husband Doug are happy empty nesters living in the Pacific Northwest. As a writer and editor, she loves the flexibility to enjoy the grandma life. You can also find her down at the local coffee shop with friends or teaching ladies’ Bible study at church. After a long day’s work, she often settles down on the couch next to Doug with an embroidery or crochet project while he reads the classics aloud. Their favorites so far are Sherlock Holmes, and any character Dickens has created.
