One of my degrees is in literature and Husband says that I become quite pompous when I discuss this topic--so; I shall just say that I like tons of books in a variety of genres.
I collect books and am usually (seriously) reading about 4 at any given time.
I adore Shakespeare and despise modern romance.
Can't get enough of Poe.
My favorite book is probably, Picture of Dorian Gray.
My favorite short story writer is, Raymond Carver.
Although I write on a variety of topics, the only one available to the masses is a webcomic I do with Husband called, Marital Bliss??? Expect it in newspapers any day!
About me:
I'm Lynn. I run things here at the "Land of Lollygaggers."
I'm a full-time writer and poet and LOVELOVELOVE to act.
I'm married to my best-friend, Mike...and couldn't be happier. He's an actor, writer, artist and a "Karaoke D.J."
Come see us some night if you're out and about in the DFW area. He's generally got gigs Wednesday-Saturday Hit me up to find out where.
Together, we created, "Marital Bliss???" the comic strip about love, marriage and animal magnetism. "Marital Bliss???" stars, Princess and Max and will be one of the sexiest comic-strips to push the envelope of newspaper comics, in some time.
It can be found by following the links above or right here on MySpace. We are currently seeking syndication and have quite a few readers, so check it out.
We also run Team Allen and are available for commissions. Just send me your needs and I'll get back to you in no less than three days.
I taught for a few years; before deciding it was beneath me and that I would rather eat qagh stew than teach another gorram day.
I am currently working on a number of projects, the top three are: a sci-fi comic book, a horror novel, and a cookbook. Oh, and a western romantic comedy and a children's book. (Yeah, I have issues with limiting myself to one project.
I also blog fairly regularly.

If you are an author, you had best be messagin' me to see where you can send a copy of your book. I am no longer adding authors unless I have read your book and I ain't buyin' it.
