A. M. Linden

Ann Margaret Linden has undergraduate degrees in anthropology and in nursing and a master’s degree as a nurse practitioner. After working in a variety of acute care and community health settings, she took a position in a program for children with special health care needs where her responsibilities included writing a variety of program-related materials. In a somewhat whimsical decision to write something for fun, she began what was initially to be a tongue-in-cheek historical murder mystery involving Druids and early medieval Christians but evolved into The Druid Chronicles. Prior to her retirement, this remained an after-hours endeavor that included taking adult education creative writing courses and researching early British history, and was augmented with travel to England, Scotland, and Wales. Currently completing the final draft of the last book in the series, the author lives with her husband and their cat and dog in Bellingham, Washington.
