M. M. Wagner is no stranger to grief, having lost her father at a young age and her husband early in their marriage. These experiences, and the journeys they set her on, aided greatly in the writing of The Blue Box.
M.M. Wagner lives in Montreal with her furry family, a feisty Pomeranian and her cuddly Poodle. She has worked in Real Estate for many years, but loves more than anything to ride her horse. Her grown son and daughter, and more recently a high spirited and utterly charming grand-daughter, have been the deepest source of inspiration for the scripting of the book. They live just a few blocks from one another, and she feels blessed that she can frequently saunter over to them, just for a cup of coffee.
