Lyn D. Nielsen is an author/ inspirational speaker who loves the desert, a self-proclaimed klutz, a hermit at heart, and a girl still married to her high school sweetheart. By the age of eight she wanted to be a writer; and as a teen discovered the desert…all part of a Master plan.
In her own words, she is the secondary author of Place of Sage Books; and her heartfelt mission is clear: to inspire others through the dark times in life, and fight senior hunger across America. Through her speaking/ book signing events, she inspires those around her and raises funds and awareness for senior meal programs in each town she visits.
Inspired by a true story; her inspirational series set in Washington State, follows an ordinary modern family as they journey through extraordinary and difficult times . . . with events as real as they are fiction, all part of a Master plan.
They are here, because with God, nothing is impossible.
Join Lyn, as she brings The Place of Sage Books Inspiration Tour to great venues across the country. Rest a while . . . be inspired . . . laugh a little . . .and help an important cause, too. Lyn is proud to support the senior meal programs in every town she visits.
Lyn lives in Washington State with her family and very fine dog. She is hard at work on book #3 of the series, and a children's book featuring Dion, her famous Place of Sage Dog. She also writes the Place of Sage Blog "Out on a Limb & Lovin' it . . . Really!" which truly reflects her life.
And, yes, it's true, she has a great skunk story . . . well, great for all who hear it . . . not so great for her and Dion!

“I have known Lyn for a couple of years, and through those years, she has had her sites set on writing. Each time she made progress, a roadblock would come up, but she kept a positive attitude, reminding me and those around her that it was in the Master plan….
Describing Lyn, I would say she is one of those ‘ivory girls,’ honest, natural, and easy to get to know.”
