Lyn D. Nielsen was born to write. At age two, she loved big rocks and her dog; by eight, she wanted to be a writer; and as a teen, she discovered the desert...all part of a Master plan.

Her heart is in the sage, and while writing Place of Sage, she tripped over plenty of it...but only a few had rattlesnakes. She lives in Washington State with her family and very fine dog.

Two of the questions Lyn gets asked most often are: "Where's the next book? And when's the movie?" Her answer to each: "I'm working on it--thank you for asking!"

It's the third question that's hard for her to answer:

"Is this story true?" (Hint: there are clues in the video.)
