About the author

Mary was an early reader. She surprised her mother by learning to read at four and going on to read Charlotte’s Web and Peter Pan before first grade. In high school, her advanced reading helped her to earn a place in California’s state Academic Decathlon competition, winning gold medals in the literature exam over multiple years. Her love of reading continued through her first career path as a biologist, spurring her to write fiction during her off time. She earned a Bachelor of Science: Evolution, Ecology, and Conservation from the University of California San Diego, became a veterinarian’s assistant, then a field biologist in Ghana, Costa Rica, and Hawaii, and then a zookeeper at the San Francisco Zoo, while she wrote her first novel.

Inevitably her passion for reading and writing drew her to publishing.

She graduated from Mills College, Oakland with a MFA in Creative Writing and English, and is currently a Literary Agent at Aevitas Creative Management.

I stumbled over this just by chance, and I'm very glad I did. What great writing style! It's short, but had a strong meaning for me.

Soundtrack: Wolf Suite Pt. 1 by Danny Elfman

Very short, but unnerving. I felt as if the Wolfman was speaking to me, and I was powerless against him. I’m impressed with the level of emotion and suspense that could be weaved into so few words.
