Lynn Vincent

Lynn Vincent is the New York Times bestselling writer of Heaven is for Real and Same Kind of Different as Me. She also collaborated on Going Rogue: An American Life. Lynn specializes in writing narrative or “dramatic” nonfiction -- true stories that (she hopes!) pull readers from page to page like fast-paced fiction. Lynn particularly loves writing stories about ordinary people living extraordinary lives. Born in Springfield, Massachusetts, Lynn has lived in San Diego for more than 25 years. She is an unabashed evangelical, a registered Republican with Libertarian leanings, and (after a brief fascination with the Oakland Raiders) a huge San Diego Chargers fan. Lynn holds a liberal arts degree from Excelsior College, and teaches writing at colleges and conferences kind enough to extend an invitation. Of all her works, Lynn’s favorites are her two sons, who, her research shows, are the two handsomest, most brilliant young men in the universe.
