About this ebook

Amelia Landry is a natural at writing scenes for her screenplay characters, but lately it seems her own life is unraveling in real time. She can barely afford the rent on her L.A. apartment, her boyfriend has become a permanent fixture on the couch, and her work in progress is stuck in editing limbo. The latest blow—the death of her grandmother—calls her back to her midwest home, where an heirloom typewriter hints at a secret life.

Amelia returns to California, where she feels doomed to play a bit role in a second-rate script—but then she meets Sebastian, a quirky but sweet actor whose emotions are all over the map. He's the kind of character Amelia has always dreamed of writing, but she isn't sure how he fits into her life.

Meanwhile, she can't stop wondering if there's more to her grandmother's story than meets the eye. Will emerging clues lead Amelia to a dead end . . . or will they inspire her to write the future she's always wanted?

About the author

Lynette DeVries spent countless childhood hours at her clunky manual typewriter writing choose-your-own-adventure stories and mysteries inspired by the Nancy Drew series. 

After college, she began writing scripts for various shows on Americana Television Network, and later she wrote episodes of the nationally syndicated Could It Be a Miracle, hosted by Robert Culp. She has written for print news and magazines, radio and advertising, but her first love is fiction. Her published novels include The Geminae Duology (Book One: Synchronicity and Book Two: Salvation), OtherLife, The Scars That Remain, Bygones, Grift, and her newest release, Punchline.

Lynette lives in south Florida, where she balances writing and her pickleball obsession.
