For eight years, I lived what appeared to be the family dream – three young kids, a nice home, a loving husband…  At age 37, however, my entire identity was flattened by the tornadoes of infidelity(s) and divorce.  I followed all of society’s rules, I thought lifelessly. I did everything expected of me.  And for what – THIS?

But deep within the shell of the Woman I’d become, there stirred signs of life: my sexual energy.  Horrified, I tried to shove it down.  I was a stay-at-home MOM after all, a lady who who conducted herself by high morals and principles. (read more here)

Surely a flirty French shoe designer in another life, in this life I am a freelance writer, parent (to two teen sons), art collector, polyglot, traveler, and devotee of exquisite footwear and fine (you got it – French) lingerie.

After a long corporate career on two continents (including writing behind-the-scenes), I turned my tap-tap-tapping on the keyboard skills to freelance writing for business and the arts.

ME & MY EVIL TWIN

evil twin2My name is Lynn and no, I don’t actually have a twin brother or sister.  The ‘twin’ I speak of is an aspect of me.  I became aware of her voice over two years ago when my ex took off with another woman.
