M. L. Doyle has served in the U.S. Army at home and abroad for more than two decades as both a soldier and civilian. A Minneapolis native, Mary currently lives in Baltimore, Maryland.

Mary's excited about her latest book, The Bonding Spell, released Nov. 2015. She's hard at work on the second book in the series and hopes people will want to revisit Hester Trueblood in her quest to learn to live with being the embodiment of the ancient goddess, Inanna.

Unafraid of genre jumping, The Bonding Spell is Mary's first urban fantasy. She has also published a mystery series, some adult erotica and a couple of co-authored memoirs.

There are people who think about writing books and people who write books. If you want to write a book, the only way to do it is to write a book. There's no magic formula, no special club you have to join, no special process you have to follow. Get your butt in the chair, put your fingers on the keyboard and put one word after the other.(less)

The basic premise for an idea usually starts with a location. While I was in uniform we went to a lot of exotic locations and did things most "civilians" wouldn't experience. So I start with a location. The next thing I do is throw in a body. My favorite mystery author, Dick Francis always started right off with a body and I always loved that. So I copy him in that way. Ideas aren't usually the problem. Its the time to write them that causes the most hair pulling! But thanks for your question!(less)

Beginning of a beginning?

It’s been a very long time since I’ve posted to this blog. Frankly, I’ve been far more upset and on edge about where we are as a nation than I was able to admit to myself.





Then, while watching the news, I cried.









I got chocked up when I first saw video of delivery people rolling boxes from their trucks into hospitals. These weren’t just any trucks. They were refrigerator trucks capable of keeping the
