Marie Mullany tried her hand at writing in high school, but in her own words, the book sucked. She turned to Role Playing as a creative outlet for a long time. In the world of Role Playing, she learned how to build a good world. A world with plot hooks and realistic societies, a world that was more than just background scenery. Now that she is approaching writing for the second time around, she is bringing all that experience in world building with her and believes her writing is the better for it. She is working on her epic fantasy series Sangwheel Chronicles. The Books are widely released as paperbacks, e-books and in audio book formats. She lives in Finland with four adorable cats and a beloved husband.
