Many of her stories weave a theme throughout the story to inform and educate the reader. Then for fun she tosses in a murder mystery or sci-fi. L.M. Wasylciw addresses real problems that everyday people face, by crafting them into a novel, believing that it is better to bring them to the table rather than attempting to hide them away, on the pretense that they do not exist. “Many people face traumatic or stressful experiences and it can unravel their lives. It gives me great satisfaction to provide a better understanding of those difficult situations.”“As a young girl I was always writing. At that time, it was mostly little stories about what went on in the world around me,” author L.M. Wasylciw says. “When I began novel writing, it felt so natural, as if it was exactly what I had been created for. Initially I had thought to write for young readers. After writing six adult novels, I returned to my original plan. Professor Scry takes young readers beyond the imaginable, opening their psychic eye to explore subconscious thoughts.” Linda is an adventurer at heart and a lover of the planet and all creatures that inhabit it. She is passionate about humanity and worries about what people are doing to the earth.
