What I do

I am an adventure writer, photographer and content creator based in London and Hampshire. I can often be found travelling, looking for unique stories that will entice my readers to spread their wings and explore new destinations. Frequently writing on assignment, I produce content for websites, newspapers and magazines; shooting accompanying photos. Formerly from California, I was born in Canada and am a British citizen of English and Welsh extraction. As an erstwhile concert singer with a B.A. Hons in Music Education, I do still spend a bit of time involved in music and the arts.

Testimonials

 

Editors

“As an editor, you always take a risk when working with writers for the first time (it’s in part why we take the easy road and re-use the same people). Despite glowing credentials, I have often been left disappointed. So you can imagine my delight when editing Lynn’s first article for Travel Africa.  On scanning the opening few lines and paragraphs, I found myself reading right through and wanting more.  Lynn’s turn of phrase is delightful; knitting experiences together perfectly; describing each encounter vividly and effortlessly, and not overwritten as so many writers tend to do.”
Craig Rix, Publisher and Editor, Travel Africa Magazine
