Lynn Dove
A graduate of the University of Calgary, where she earned her Bachelor of Education degree in 1981, Lynn has spent the last thirty years teaching all age groups of children (and adults) in the private and public school settings as well as in her church. In 2007, she earned a Master of Religious Education degree from the Canadian Southern Baptist Seminary, in Cochrane, Alberta.
Lynn knew from the time she was in elementary school that she wanted to be a writer. She has written numerous columns and articles in local papers and for the Baptist Horizon (CNBC), and written freelance for HomeLife Magazine (LifeWay).
Shoot the Wounded, is written for youth and young adults, and addresses how lies and gossip destroy a person's spirit. It speaks to the heart of relevant themes such as bullying, teen pregnancy and family violence all the while pointing the characters and ultimately the reader, to hope in Jesus Christ.
Lynn is currently working on the sequel, Heal the Wounded, scheduled to be released in 2010, and the last book in the trilogy, Love the Wounded to be released in 2011.
Lynn was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001 and does not consider herself a survivor but a "thriver"! Her autobiographical novel that relates her journey with breast cancer, Life Lived is scheduled for release in 2010.
