About Linda Rondeau
I’m Linda Wood Rondeau, also known as L.W. Rondeau — a grandmother, retired social worker, cancer survivor, and happily married for over 48 years. I came to the writing scene later in life at age 54, yet my first traditionally published book arrived in 2011 and went on to win Best Debut Novel in 2012, one day before my 65th birthday. My journey proves it’s never too late to write; all you need is a vivid imagination and a love for people...
…My most recent release, “GLICK: My Favorite Alien”, is a heartfelt middle-grade book inspired by my then six-year-old grandson’s request for a story about an alien. It took me 22 years to complete this special project. While this one is self-published, my other books are traditionally published and available on Amazon.
As a cross-genre Christian author, my titles include “Ghosts of Trumball Mansion” (Christian paranormal), “Lessons Along the Way” (a 30-day devotional based on my religious newspaper column), and “Second Helpings” (a semi-comic look at a troubled marriage).
Previously, I served as managing fiction editor and acquisitions editor for Elk Lake Publishing. Today, I’m still active in several writing groups, teach at writing conferences, and serve as a mentor, writing coach, and freelance editor. Beyond writing, I stay involved in my local church through community outreach.
After years in Northern New York and a brief stint in Florida, I now reside in Hagerstown, MD, with my ever-patient husband.
