Her father toppled the religious foundations of the country, and now she and her new husband, 9-year-old King Tut, are expected to rebuild the shattered nation.

About the Author

J. LynnAround 4th grade, J. Lynn began writing stories. She also developed an interest in history around that time when she was gifted the book “The Discovery of the Titanic: Exploring the Greatest of All Lost Ships” (which she still owns). Her creative writing also developed in part through having multiple pen pals in her school days (in the “time before email” times!).
After going to an exhibit at the Minnesota Science Museum entitled “King Tut and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs,” J. Lynn discovered that while much is known about King Tut, very little is left to us about his wife. With a genuine desire to give voice to this former queen of Egypt, the book “The Forgotten: Aten’s Last Queen” was born. J. Lynn hopes to continue to create more stories focusing on historical women who rose above what society told them they could achieve; women who carved out new trails and touched their dreams despite the odds.
Outside of reading voraciously and driving kids to multiple after-school activities, J. Lynn enjoys a perfectly-steeped cup of hot tea while honing her Fruit Ninja skills and editing The Forgotten, Book 2: “Heir of the Heretic.” You can learn more J. Lynn Else, her writing, her tea, and her nerdiness at: www.teasippinnerdymom.com or on Twitter: @AtensLastQueen.

About the Author: Anna Imagination

Biographical Info... What you seek is my Story. Every Soul is a "Blurb" as one would read on the back of the book. But can people be "unwrapped" so easily? Most importantly, why try? I have long since learned to preserve the Savory that comes with Discovery. Learning of another Soul is a Journey. It is an Exploration. And it does not do the Soul Justice to try and condense a Soul Journey into a Bio.
