Marie Ventris writes horror, sci-fi, and fantasy. She was spawned in the black depths of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Washington state, and has since learned to live on land and behave like people. She is fond of crows, trees, and mythology. She is also neurodivergent and is a vocal autism advocate.

Her non-writing hobbies include painting, gardening, singing, and swallowing souls. Her husband/keeper is a redhead who also enjoys the occasional soul snack, and her young son is already set on world domination. Her cat does her edits.

Marie is still discovering the intricacies of “social interaction”, and truly values conversation via social media. She has great things planned and is excited to share her very normal and not at all warped s

WRITING MOTIVATION

Welcome to my first writing blog on the new website! I haven’t blogged about anything writing related in a few years, so before I tackle the technical writing advice, I’m covering writing habits. You can’t practice your craft if you never write, right? Right. And write!

W.B. Yeats
“Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.”
William Butler Yeats, The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats

Charles Dickens
“There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.”
Charles Dickens

William Shakespeare
“I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was: man is but an ass, if he go about to expound this dream. Methought I was--there is no man can tell what. Methought I was,--and methought I had,--but man is but a patched fool, if he will offer to say what methought I had. The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man's hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream was. I will get Peter Quince to write a ballad of this dream: it shall be called Bottom's Dream, because it hath no bottom...”
William Shakespeare

Robert Frost
“No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader.”
Robert Frost

Charles Dickens
“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”
Charles Dickens
