"My stories may be real or imagined, but my God is always real."

DEBORAH LYNNE
Deborah Lynne was born in New Orleans but spent nearly her entire life in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She was married for 42 years to the love of her life, who sadly passed away in 2014. Together, they raised three children—one son and two daughters. Over the years, Deborah Lynne has been blessed to become a Granny five times, and in 2025, she joyfully stepped into a new season as a Great Granny, when her first grandson welcomed her very first great-grandson.
As a young girl, Deborah Lynne dreamed of becoming an actress. She later realized that passion was planted in her by God—not to perform on stage or screen, but to live out the stories He gave her through the characters she creates in her books. “God gives me the idea for the story, then helps me write the book,” she says. “I never know how a story will end until I write the ending. In one book, Hidden Secrets, I didn’t even know who the killer was until the very last page!” She still laughs at the idea that she became a published author—especially since English was her least favorite subject in school.
Deborah Lynne writes inspirational fiction filled with romance, mystery, and suspense. Her journey as an author began after a car accident left her laid up for several months. During that time, she read dozens of novels and eventually thought, “I could write one of these.” And she did. Her first novel was published in 2007, and within two years, three more followed.
In addition to her novels, Deborah has had articles published in Christian magazines. Over the years, she has worked with three publishing houses before choosing to step into self-publishing after seven years with her latest publisher.
She has also served as a keynote and guest speaker at several writers’ conferences, sharing her expertise on topics such as Romance Writing, How to Get Published, and The Do’s and Don’ts of Writing.
Before her husband’s passing, Deborah Lynne wrote only fiction. In the years that followed his death, God gently guided her through the grieving process—and into a new kind of writing. She poured that divine guidance into a one-year devotional titled Guidance From The Light.
In 2018, God whispered an idea into her heart—one centered on revealing His view of us and what we’re capable of through Him. She held on to that vision and, though she initially set it aside, it never left her spirit.
In 2019, she was led to write Blessings From God, a heartfelt book that explores His abundant generosity. Then in 2020, the gentle nudge to revisit her 2018 vision became undeniable. The result was But God Says, a powerful non-fiction book and a testament to her obedience.
In 2024, she released Growing the Fruit of the Spirit, her newest non-fiction offering, which helps Christians cultivate the nine traits of the Holy Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—to become more like Jesus.
And in 2025, her beloved yearly devotional - Guidance From The Light - was reformatted and leveled up into a beautiful devotional journal, making it even more interactive and soul-nourishing for readers. 3 quarters have been released so far.
Deborah Lynne’s books continue to reach readers around the world, inspiring and encouraging them with each turn of the page. Her deepest hope is that those who read what God has given her will be truly blessed by the words—and she gives all the glory to God.
