Hi! I’m author L.A. Webster, but you can call me Lyn.
I write speculative fiction, mainly adult fantasy.
In 2020 I published my debut novel, a portal fantasy entitled Greenhaelan (Chronicles of Algarth #1), followed by Skalsinger (Chroinicles of Algarth #2) in 2021.

In another life, I was a teacher, and I spent a considerable portion of my limited free time reading stories about imaginary places, usually fantastical. Several years ago, I finally took my courage in my hands and set out to see if I could write an original tale of my own.

After a few wrong turns, I found myself mysteriously transported to the magical island of Algarth, where I’ve been spending most of my writing time ever since. I like it there, and I hope you will, too.

Lyn’s Recent Updates

Lyn liked a quote
The Summer of the Danes by Ellis Peters
“Every Spring is the only Spring, a perpetual astonishment. It bursts upon a man every year, thought Cadfael, contemplating it with delight in spite of all anxieties, as though it had never happened before, but had just been shown by God how to do it, and tried, and found the impossible possible.”
Ellis Peters

This was fun. I liked the nods to Agatha Christie, who is herself a character in the series, although not the sleuth, thank goodness. Phyllida Bright is a great character, smart and full of contrasts, and the mystery itself was interesting and mostly ...more
