about me

I like thinking 'what if' and the only way to keep these 'what if's' under control is to write about them. So I write fiction for children because I can let my 'what if's' go mad.
I write full time as if I'm on the Hero's Journey. I've had the inciting incident (I've read books), I've convinced myself 'I am the only one' (I have high self esteem issues) and I am now throttling the threshold guardians of ignorance and ineptitude. So please, read my book and help me through the doorway, and into the story.
Here's a serious bit - I was a primary school teacher and I have had a reading scheme - Action Words- published. You can view this at the link below.

favourite books

Harry Potter, especially The Goblet of Fire because I can re-read and re-read and still enjoy it.
Goodnight, Mr Tom because it is brilliant and takes my emotions up and down.
Wild Swans for showing another world.

The Bloodcurdling Bug Eyed Jaw....

Maureen Lynas

Don’t pull that face or it will stick. Oops, too late.


I'm not active on Authonomy at the moment but feel free to read my book if you want to.

It was absolutely clear: Warning – Do Not follow these instructions. But Junior Extreme Face-puller Gurner Gobbit went ahead and pulled the Bloodcurdling Bug Eyed Jawbreaker anyway. Now his friend is petrified and Gurner’s face has stuck. Can he put things right before his arch rival Gradley Aardacre arrives back with the polliss? It’s down the mines for Gurner if he can’t fix this.

Hi Lostock This was a surprise as I thought the book had gone into the authonomy dungeon for forgotten about books! I must see how you delete something from the site. I'm very happy you liked it enough to put it on your shelf but please don't spend your valuable time critiquing this. It's is an old... view book

This is a very good read, the writing is of a very high standard, the characters well drawn and the suspense builds. I read to ch 5 and there was just a couple of things. Betty's clothes are mentioned just a bit too much and calling the other red heads the others reminded me of Lost. And that's it f... view book

Oh You! I'm clicking away trying to get the next bit and then suddenly realise what you've done. What an ending I cannot fault this story (that's never been known :) ) I loved it. It will stay on my shelf until you are up in the top five. Thank you. Maureen view book

Hi Pierre Sorry about the failure to return the read. I always try to. I thought the pitch was a step by step account of what happens and would have preferred to see the emotional journey and theme of the story embedded into it. I think you have an ability to write very well, the characters a... view book

Hi Muriel As you asked so nicely for some help I’ve spent a bit of time trying to work out why it’s halted. I’ve taken the approach of – what would stop me reading this if I randomly found it on - pitch me. It’s a tough approach but hopefully helpful. The quality of the writing is excellent, can... view book
