Lynne Scott claims she "writes in her spare time"

By Monty Siekerman
Lynne Scott owns and operates a kennel, teaches six Zumba classes, and writes in her "spare time." At the Ada Rotary Club meeting and lunch on Tuesday at The Inn, she talked about writing.

In addition to taking care of her two dogs, four cats, a farmhouse on several acres, and being an excellent cook, somehow she has managed to write five books, a novella, and a screenplay.

How does she write so much? She gives these two tips to would-be writers.

1. Take the Writing Challenge. Write 60,000 works in November. Then, take a few months to correct grammar and spelling, move paragraphs around, even change the plot, if you wish. For more about the Challenge, go to NaNoWriMo.org.

2. Checkout the website CreateSpace.com. This is part of Amazon where a writer can upload his story to be read by others on line or where an author can obtain a hard copy.

Lynne says it is hard to classify her writing. She best describes it as "contemporary fiction."

Her books are available at The Inn and the Gallery for the Arts.
