Linda Mayo was born and raised in the rolling hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. She worked as an Accounts Payable Manager for the last 25 years prior to retiring in 2021. She has spent most of her life in Virginia near family.
Her love of novel writing began while working at the University Of Virginia. Being surrounded by a continuous learning culture she enrolled in 2 courses: Novel Writing and Creative Writing. It was a rewarding experience. The critics in the class said they loved her writing. The support from her peers encouraged her to finish the book “Lydia’s Gift” that she drafted during the course. She also expanded her writing into three more books: Bridge Over Time, Timeless, and Time For Love.
