Linda Naseem has been a writer all her life, but it is only in the past few years that she has started seriously putting words to paper.
She was raised as an “Army brat”, packing up and moving every couple years. The habit of not staying put has followed her into adulthood, with Sweden and Nigeria being among the places she has called home. Now, having lived for six years in Colorado, her feet are beginning to itch and she is dreaming of Alaska.
Her first novel, NOTHING, published in 2015, a story of meth addiction and its effect on the addict’s loved ones, was a Gold Winner in the Indie Human Relations Book Awards. Her second novel, EDEN, set in 1968 in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district, was published in March 2018. It is a story of first love told against a backdrop of flower children, racial prejudice, and the Vietnam War.
She is available to speak about addiction―prevention and consequences―to students in addiction studies programs and to other interested groups.
