About Me

Hi, I'm Marianne. Thank you for taking the time to click through to my About page.  

​

I write the Castlewood High Tales, a retold sweet romance series, under the pen name Mary-Kate Thomas. 

I have plans for sooo many other stories under different pen names. Life just keeps getting in the way of writing.

If you'd like to keep up-to-date with my book releases, please consider subscribing to my monthly newsletter, The Story Scoop.

​

A little about me... I'm a mom of four - two daughters, two sons - and my husband and I have been happily married for over twenty years.  I spend my days wrangling our latest pair of bird dogs, working part-time in my lovely corner of SW Ohio, and writing stories.  

​

I'm a lifelong reader who always carried a book or two in my bag everywhere I went.  These days, I just keep five or six books loaded to my Kindle account to read on my iPhone. ;-)

​

I believe there is no better magic than a good story!
