Lynn Daniels

Lynn Daniels is retired, with hours and hours to write the next great novel. Worlds come alive in my head, characters stand over her shoulder, and sometimes they wake her up at night. All of them want to come alive, to have their stories written. No matter how she thinks the story should go, it goes according to how the character decides it should. An evil character finds redemption. A beloved character is massacred for no good reason. They all write their own stories.The ideas come to her, the character develops a personality, and the result is a book. She sincerely hopes that everyone will love her books, but she knows that what she writes isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay. She simply wants to bring life and color into the world through the pages of her books. Every time someone buys a book, or leaves a review, she's delightfully surprised. She offers her eternal gratitude to all of you, for reading what she has written, and allowing her to become a small part of your life.

Book preview

Where we are

Looking at a dreary sky

In the middle of the night

I say I want to come over

I won't fall down

What doesn't make sense tonight,

Will all be gone tomorrow

I came out of this

But I'm not a better person

I have no regrets

I'm smart enough to admit

That this lifestyle is not for me

And here I am

Live from the shadows

If I tell my story right

Then I'll remember it tomorrow

But as it stands,

I'm living the sequel to the loneliest hour

Trying to keep my mood from going sour

My redemption depends on tomorrow

Though I did nothing wrong

I stood back and hid from afar

And now my duty

Became my last option

And my next chapter

Should be the first choice

This is where I am

Unheralded Canvas

Despondent and irritable

A familiar sight to many

An unwelcome tandem

Troublesome?

Of course

Bothersome?

Why not?

Their presence is less than pleasant

But they serve as an unconventional
