Lynn Stratton

When I moved to Florida, I was 24, and except for a brief stay in Green Bay, Wisconsin (where I discovered that, yes, you can wear thermal underwear from October through May), I've been here since. My love of reading led me to a degree in creative writing, and then one in English Literature. I taught writing at USF for 15 years, and finally decided that writing was what I wanted to do, not simply teach it. I also decided I'd combine my innate nosiness with my desire to write and start writing about what interested me most: our health, our food, our environment, and, most of all, the well-guarded secrets about those things that politicians and corporations don't want us to know about.

So I left teaching to work at the St. Petersburg Times, where I managed to write stories while working in several departments at once. But five years at the newspaper convinced me, just recently, to go out on my own as a freelance writer and editor. Now, in between the projects I take on that pay the bills, I have the freedom to pursue the stories I really want to do.

There are a lot of secrets out there that "they" don't want you to know, and they affect your health and well-being. I plan to do all I can to share that information with you.
