New York Times & USA Today Bestselling Author, Lynn Rush, is a full-time writer, wife, and trail runner living in the Sonoran Desert, despite her fear of rattlesnakes. Known as #TheRunningWriter, Lynn can’t resist snapping epic sunrise pictures while running in the desert with her trail sisters, even if she has to occasionally hop a scorpion.

When she’s not running or writing, she’s watching movies that fuel her everlasting love of superheroes, vampires, and all things Supernatural. The books she reads usually carry the same theme, but this former college athlete loves reading sweet sports romances as well.

She’s madly in love with her Ironman husband of 20+ years who is the inspiration for what true love is. You can find her on social media

I called up a lock smith before and asked him if I could break into a safe by freezing the lock. It took a little explaining as to why I was asking that question, but he chuckled, happy to chat with me. It was for my book Frostbite. I even named him in the acknowledgements. :) (less)

So often I think about them while out and about, living my daily life. I've even been known to chuckle at something I knew one of my characters would think is funny! They're a part of my soul. (less)

Lynn Rush Hi, Jordan. I love chatting it up with my readers/friends! :) Yep. Wasteland is on Kindle (http://amzn.to/AleI6c) and Nook (http://bit.ly/y7SZin) So what's your favorite genre to read? I'm reading The Rainbow Man by Deborah Lamoreaux. It's more fantasy than paranormal (which is my fave) but still very good! :)
