A strange thing happened as I sat down to write this bio… I discovered that talking about myself is harder than writing fiction. So, maybe I should just make stuff up instead. Okay, I could write that I’m a doctor – well, actually, that’s true. I do have a DCA from a university, here in Queensland, where I live. Hmm, that’s true too. I do live in Qld, and so love being outdoors, especially if it involves coffee! Not doing so good with the making-stuff-up bit. Um, all right. I could write that I have two published novels called 'Mira Falling' and 'Sisterhood' - my third, Shroudeaters', is due for release any day now! - and that I'm writing a fourth novel (a sci-fi baby this time), and that I love to write short stories and have a few published ones floating around. But all of that would be true, so instead I’ll say this about me… I believe in writer’s block and love deadlines, bad punctuation, and bubblegum-flavoured ice-cream. Ah, now that’s some good fiction! Happy Reading, Maria :)
