A new Regency series Improper Ladies is in the pipeline for late in 2023.With a BA in English and Fine Arts and a Master of Arts Degree in Creative Writing, Maggi lives in Australia, in the beautiful Dandenong ranges with her husband, a retired lawyer. Cockatoos, parrots, possums, peacocks and deer visit them, and animals often feature in her books.
