Lynette Eason is an esteemed, veteran author within the suspense fiction market. Her books don’t just sell well, they sell big. So what’s her secret? How does she manage to write so many books with so much rich, spiritual, engaging content?

The answer is easy – she has good friends.

THE EDITOR:

Firstly, every author on the planet has an editor. Their crucial job is to be a second pair of eyes. The author’s eyes are creative, wild and imaginative, wondering all over the place and pushing the bounders. While the editor’s eyes are focused on the audience, the book’s intended marketplace, the competition and the bank balance.

Together they and chop, change and perfect every chapter so the book is well balanced. Both imaginative and grounded.

THE EXPERTS:

Secondly, a crime fiction author writes in the world of law enforcement, medicine and organizations like the CIA. So unless you started your career as a junior doctor specialising in forensics, then became the secretary to the head of the FBI whilst training as a Navy Seal in your spare time, your books going to lack accuracy.

But Lynette asked some friends in those respective fields to check over her book, allowing them to input any additional information to add realism and grit to the plot. Officer James Hall and Retired FBI Agent Wayne Smith proof read the law enforcement details. While Ruthie Owens who works at Spartanburg Regional Hospital answered any medical questions Lynette had. So everything you’ll read in ‘When A Heart Stops’ has the voice of an expert behind it.

HER INSPIRATION:

Every author has intentions when writing their novels. Some dream of best sellers (and a big pay check). Other dream of fame and the red carpet towards the massive award ceremonies. But others simply want to bless their readers, opening their eyes and hearts to their convictions and beliefs.

For Lynette Eason, her intentions shine through from the first page:

“To my wonderful family and friends
I couldn’t do this without you.
And to Jesus Christ,
My Lord and Saviour -
And my reason for writing.
I pray people see you on every page!” – At the front of ‘When A Heart Stops’.

As a strong believer and a talented author, she uses her God-given gift to serve, minister and inspire faith. Enjoy Lynette’s books, because they are for you.
