ELSIE FINCH is the result of a curious mind. Author LYNN BYK enjoys being a wallflower journalist circulating through the corners of a room allowing a story to unfold at will. She doesn't flinch in setting forth the details though they might conflict with a given setting. In her way of presenting the angles, she is a nonconformist of Christian authors and literary writers alike.
BookLife Prize for ELSIE FINCH: “Alluring and convincing...This work has an unusual premise and there's a grandness to the scope...The novel offers an intimate exploration of relationship dynamics and emotional conflicts...an epic accomplishment.”

Byk facilitates a writer's group, from which several burgeoning authors have found their voice in publishing and editing. She is a key figure of the Golden Writers Conference, an organized mentoring group. Although her prose has been published by a variety of magazines, her memoir, Mister B, was her first book, a memoir for mass trade.
In Mister B, BYK carries readers through a very funny juxtaposition of energies training the companions to heel at life's new gait. She writes with the uncanny wit of a Polish immigrant's voice and modern blue-class opinions set into conflict by two generations in a daily embrace. She honors the Rhode Island rocket scientist's rise from poverty. In doing so informs younger generations of a choice of lifestyle and Mister B's reasons for living.
Mister B is a retired WWII, and cold war stress physicist for Martin Company, Lockheed Martin, NASA, and the Department of Defense. Co-Author, Lynn Byk's past writing resume includes being a Denver music critic, a paralegal, and a poet. Writing with an edge of cynicism with a soft middle of hope, she walks right into hearts with one part sadness and two-parts curiosity, she chronicles how it came to be that Mister B's power to entice by goodwill, facts, and figures becomes a love language of his own. BYK is honored to be the Readers' Favorite Silver Medalist recipient in the category of Christian Living (2018). She is a compassionate and entertaining storyteller as well as a diligent investigator.
