"Kerry Lynne was a history major in college and went into teaching for a few years. Then she wound up in the decorative painting world, where she traveled, taught and published for over 37 years and as luck would have it her hand stopped working. So she went back to what she knew: writing, history and sailing."

Lynne's fictional writings include The Pirate Captain, Chronicles of a Legend, “Nor Silver” (2014 Next Generation Indie Book Finalist Award for Historical Fiction), The Pirate Captain, Nor Gold”, The Pirate Captain, "Treasured Treasures" and a published short story, LocoThology #3-The Price of Victory (The Pirate Captain) along with the 4th book TBR, The Pirate Captain, Cursed Blessings.

Rachel,
Wow, you are a fast reader!!! I am thrilled that you have enjoyed Nathan's story. I am working on Treasured Treasures and hopefully it will be released in late 2017, if you join the Pirate Captain Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/pirat... you will find excerpts, hints and tidbits from Treasured Treasures. Thank you again it is so very rewarding to have a reader say they enjoyed these books, Nathan's world is a work of love and I can never say no him when he insist that I keep writing, . .(less)

She was also the one to give me permission to work the way I wanted, instead of the way everyone was telling me I should. She's been very encouraging along the way since. A grand and giving lady.

Umm.... the next book? Well, I'm working on it. Like any of them, I have a broad idea of where it's going, but the finer details I allow to work out for themselves. Like Diana, I don't start at Chapter 1, Page 1. I go with whatever inspires that day (or whoever is talking, most often Nathan) and just write the scene. I figure out where it fits into the grand scheme of things later. Needless to say, I wind up with lots of excess bits lying about from the last two that I can work in. If it makes you feel any better, my goal is to finish it as quickly as possible, so I can dig into the next. I'm working with characters who are less than patient, so they keep me hustling. Still, looking at a couple years, at least.

Again, thanks so much for the kind words. All I ask is that you spread the word. (less)

The story was well put together. easy to follow brought life to the characters. The drama and acting fit perfect with the storyline.
I was hoping for a pirate story turns out it's a bit of a romance just barely enough pirate to keep an adult now interested. And after I got wrapped into it the ending. I won't spoil Read more of this blog post »

“Wisdom of the ages you seek, lad? I offer but one word: treasure. At what price does this treasure come, you ask, for not all does silver and gold make? If it be treasure you seek then you are a pirate!”
