FICTION + FANTASY + NONFICTION + POETRY + ANTHOLOGIES
I’m currently writing poetry, a passion I’ve had since schooldays in England. My first poetry book published in January 2023. I’m also writing devotionals and short stories on Medium.
Here are my published paperbacks and ebooks.
You can view all my published work including workbooks I created for my business White Rose Writers on my Amazon page.
Memoir
Raising Benjamin Frog is a glimpse into the world of raising a child who has autism, from the mother’s perspective. Lynne doesn’t give advice or textbook answers to questions but tells her story as one parent to another. Lynne also talks about how her Christian faith played a significant role in how she raised her son and how his faith spurred him on to be an author himself. Sometimes sad and often hilarious, this is her story.
“I would highly recommend this book not only to parents of autistic children, but to anyone who wants to read a touching story about a mother and her much loved son.” – Stephanie N, ON
Captivating Read!
“This talented author, Lynne Collier, shares a touching journey of raising an autistic son. The author’s candid storytelling touched my heart right from the first sentence. My tears flowed, and then I laughed and cried some more. I could not put this book down. I’m not sure if the author was aware of this interesting tidbit, but an acronym for F.R.O.G. is Forever-Rely-On-God. How appropriate!“
Christian Suspense
Maddie wants nothing more than a quiet, peaceful life in her small Canadian town but her husband is getting bored with his early retirement and searches for a project that will pocket him a few extra dollars for a trip abroad. He accepts an invitation from a newcomer to the church who has been talking about an innovative business opportunity. When Maddie gets drawn into the marketing group, she begins to see things which shouldn’t be happening and fears she may be losing her mind but others suspect it may be something much worse.
“This book is extremely well written. I couldn’t put the book down. It’s not my usual genre but I thoroughy enjoyed this book. This is the second book I’ve purchased written by this talented author.” – Tracy, ON
Poetry & Art
Poetry & Poems from White Rose Shire is a collection of contemporary poems and short essays about God and His creation in a rural Canadian garden.
In her book, Poetry & Prose from White Rose Shire, Lynne explores several styles of poetry, paying attention to the often overlooked events that occur daily in nature. Her delightful and often comical poetry about her life in her Ontario garden draws readers closer to our relationship with God and His creation.
The charming drawings in the book were created by a young Canadian art student with a love of nature and would be an ideal gift for lovers of nature poetry, especially newcomers to Canada and gifts for friends overseas.
“I enjoyed this little book of prose, rhyming, free flow, and haiku poems. My favourite poem was “The Beginning of it All”, “Growing Gratitude” resonated with me, and many poems made me giggle including “The Alien at my Door”. It made me long to visit the shire.” – Kimberley, ON
Fantasy Novella
A Nord farmer’s son is embarking on his Rite of Passage alone in a place he’s never been before and which holds many dangers. As he battles forces on his journey through the treacherous passage, he becomes aware of a different kind of evil–an evil that threatens not only his own safety but also the safety of his town. Is he ready for the challenge?
