My new pen name and new novel

Readers of my first three novels, Amelia, The Captain’s Wife and Gathering Secrets, know me by my name, Linda Fechter. I chose to publish my fourth novel, The Curator, under a pen name, Linda Greene. You may wonder — “Why did she do that?”

It’s simple. Linda Greene is easier to pronounce and spell. It is also a name that is uniquely mine. I chose it. It wasn’t given to me through birth or marriage (as much as I value both.)

I look forward to having future novels and other writing published under my pen name, Linda Greene. In the meantime, enjoy Linda Fechter’s first three novels, Amelia, The Captain’s Wife and Gathering Secrets! And look for Linda Greene’s novel, The Curator, on Amazon!

Looking back

It’s hard to believe, but this Spring will mark seven years since I published my first novel, Amelia. Amelia’s story begins in England in 1845. It is a lovely story about a young lady who must face hardship but finds strength, love and blessings in the process. A year later, I published The Captain’s Wife which is set in Boston in 1849. While Amelia is historical romance, The Captain’s Wife could be classified as women’s historical fiction. In 2021, I published my romantic mystery, Gathering Secrets, which is set in San Francisco in the early 1950s.

Due to changes in my life when my late husband passed on, I slowed my writing pace but I am making progress on my fourth novel, also a romantic mystery set in the early 1950s.

Amelia, my first novel, published in 2019.
