Marianna Palmer is a dreamer. Writing didn't come as naturally as it should have but after a dare from her sister, she fell in love with the written word. Career choices were varied. She has tried her hand at being a secretary, fast food cook, cafe owner, event coordinator, factory worker, and wanted to be a doctor, actor, pilot, teacher, translator, and the president (for at least a day) before realizing she was a writer. Stories have been a part of her life since she was young, and Barbie had mythological battles with Blue Horse and Pink Horse! She lives in Washington with her sister and two cats who work as hard as possible to make sure Marianna doesn't get any writing done.
