Hywela Lyn has enjoyed reading and writing Westerns, Science Fiction/Fantasy and Adventure stories - always with a strong romantic element, for as long as she can remember. Although most of her stories tend to be futuristic, the worlds she creates are usually untainted by crowded cities and technology, embracing the beauty and wildness of nature. Her characters often have to fight the elements and the terrain itself.

Her heroes are strong and courageous, but chivalrous and honourable - and of course, handsome and hunky. Her heroines are also strong and courageous, but retain their femininity and charm. Her tales are set in other times and worlds, but one thing remains constant. The power of love. Love, not only between her hero and heroine, but between friends and siblings, and for their home and the creatures that share it.

Hywela Lyn lives with her long suffering husband, Dave, in a small village in England although she hopes eventually to return to her native rural Wales. A passionate animal lover she has two horses, two feral cats and an adopted Jack Russell terrier. She usually manages to sneak some sort of horse or unicorn into her stories. For those curious about her name, 'Hywela' is Welsh and is her first name. Since she has always been called by her second name, Lyn, it seemed a good idea to combine the two and use Hywela Lyn as her pen name.)
