Lynn Davis

Kathryn Lynn Davis was born with what the ancient Celts called ‘the fatal gift of the imagination: a crown of stars and a stinging sword.’ With an MA in History, she has published nine historical novels. The first, THE DAKOTAS: AT THE WIND'S EDGE, received nationwide attention when it was banned in Medora, North Dakota, the town where it is set. Her New York Times bestseller, TOO DEEP FOR TEARS (Book 1 in the Too Deep for Tears Trilogy), rose to #5 in seven weeks on the list, as well as appearing on many other national bestseller lists. Her short story, “Clouds Across the Moon,” appeared in MOTHER (Pocket, 1996), ed. Claudia O’Keefe -- an anthology of short stories and poems by authors including Maya Angelou, Amy Tan, Joyce Carole Oates, Barbara Kingsolver, et al. Twice she received the University of California Riverside's Creative Writing Alumni Award for Fiction, as well as Romantic Times awards for best Scottish Historical Fiction (CHILD OF AWE), Career Achievement Award (ALL WE HOLD DEAR, TOO DEEP FOR TEARS, SING TO ME OF DREAMS), \u0026amp; Best Historical Novel (SOMEWHERE LIES THE MOON). Along with six other novelists, she also won the Rone, an Indy award for a collection of Scottish historical romances: SCROLLS OF CHRIDE, VOLUME I: HIGHLAND WINDS.\nShe was a featured speaker at the James Joyce Cultural Centre in Dublin, and at the Sullivan Upper School in Belfast's Bicentenary celebration. She has re-released five of her traditional bestsellers as e-books, including the Too Deep for Tears Trilogy, as well as SING TO ME OF DREAMS, and its never before published sequel, WEAVE FOR ME A DREAM (27 years in the making), in addition to two novellas--Books 1 and 2 in The Roses of Glen Affric series: A TEAR FOR MEMORY and HIGHLAND AWAKENING. \nYou can follow Kathryn at: \nhttps://www.facebook.com/kathrynlynndavis.\nTwitter: http://twitter.com/kathrynlyndavis\nAmazon: http://bit.ly/kldavisauthor\nPinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/kathrynlyndavis\nBlog: http://bit.ly/kathrynlynndavisblog
