Welcome to My Website

Thanks for visiting my new website and blog. I’m thrilled with the new look! And I’m grateful for the opportunity to share the ins and outs of my writing, speaking, and family life work with you.

The new site has everything the old site had–and more. You can still watch television clips of my Fox 25 Morning News appearances, listen to radio clips, and read feature articles. A more user-friendly Library includes a new addition called Lynne in the News, and another called Lynne as Contributor. There you’ll find a recent article that appeared in the Patriot Ledger on the changing role of step-dads and an article from the Boston Globe about mothers who write.

As you can probably gather from the inclusion of information about my forthcoming novel, Life Without Summer, my family life work is moving in a new direction. I’m spending more time writing fiction, though even my novel is all about family life. Life Without Summer will be published in April, by St Martin’s Press. Via this blog and my Writers Group blog, I’ll keep you posted on the details of my writing life.

I continue to speak across the country, promoting Negotiation Generation, which highlights my approach to taking back your parental authority without punishment. If your interested in setting up a program in your community, please be in touch.

So have fun poking around the new site. There’s a lot here for you to read, listen to, and see. Of course, feel free to spread the word to interested family and friends. And do post comments, it’s a great way for you to offer your own point of view on the topics I write about.
