Hi there! It’s good to see you.

I am a life-long writer and lover of old diner booths. I write women’s fiction set in modern-day Appalachia that feels like peeling the backs of your legs off a chair on a sweltering summer’s day.

I am currently editing my debut novel, and will be seeking representation in Fall 2026.

With love, Maggie
