He's seventeen, the world is dying around him, while half the country lies between him and his surviving family. He has a good dog, a child, a dying farmer, and decent ranchers to help him – against him are vicious bikers, the greedy, the foolish and the evil. But Jason is learning every step of the way. Lyn started writing in 1990 and, within a year, had short stories and poems published. In 1993, her first book, a humorous true-life work (Farming Daze) about her farm, friends, and animals, appeared, followed by six others in that series. As a joke between them, a longtime friend of Lyn's, Andre Norton, was given a book Lyn had written set in one of Andre's worlds. Andre was impressed with the work and took it to her agents, who sold it to Warner books. This led Lyn to write another six books in Andre's world, published either by Warner or TOR. Lyn has won seven short story Muse Medallions from the (International) Cat Writer's Association and six Sir Julius Vogel Awards for her books. Since the original book, Lyn has seen almost fifty more books appear plus over three hundred short stories and says she has no intention of stopping so long as she can write.
