Cheryl Lynn

Cheryl Lynn, born on a Canadian army base in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, embraces her "army brat" upbringing, viewing the entire country as her hometown. 

A University of British Columbia graduate, Cheryl maintains a profound connection to Canadian history and storytelling. Growing up in a family of storytellers and poets, she recalls her father reading fables and reciting Robert W. Service's "Songs of a Sourdough."

Cheryl’s writing is deeply rooted in real people and historical events, where she focuses on celebrating unsung heroes and exploring the beliefs, values, and actions of ordinary individuals in the face of significant moments in history. By weaving personal stories with broader historical contexts, Cheryl aims to reflect on contemporary society and the resilience of those who quietly contribute to making the world a better place.
