Welcome to my little corner of the internet! I’m so glad you’re here. Take a seat, I’m sure you’ve been scrolling for a while *hands over warm drink*
Oh, what is this place?
It’s my author website, technically. Most authors are supposed it have them. It actually started out as a blog for horse crazy girls (which is why it’s called Equine on the Mind instead of my name, Allie Lynn) but over the years it’s grown into a lot more.
You see, friend, I write stories. I used to write just horse stories as a little girl, but as I grew older– and gained more scars because of it– I learned that there’s a lot more to the stories I wanted to write than just horses.
I realized I wanted to write for survivors.
I went through a lot of traumatic things as a young teen, and it was stories and horses who helped those wounds heal into scars. And as I came into adulthood, I realized those were the kind of stories I wanted to write. Books that were unafraid of showing the depth of pain one goes through in trauma, but also show the beauty and hope found in the healing.
Too many people use trauma in their books to drive tension or create a plot. I don’t want to do that. I want my stories to heal, just like other stories did for me. And yes– sometimes, there’s a few horses included :).
So welcome, friend, to my corner of the internet! I hope you’ll explore the site a bit and find something you’ll like. And if you wish to follow along on my own wandering through the woods of publishing, you can subscribe to my email list (and get a free ebook for your time) here.
These stories are for the survivors
For the ones who are not alone.
