A Little Something About Mary
Mary is handling Alex Berkely, the Agent.
Mary grew up wanting to be two things: an artist and a writer. She thought that she would have to choose between the two things. So she chose artist and earned a BFA in painting from the University of Rhode Island. During her very last required class (in writing, no less) a wise professor told her that she could do both things. And now she does.
Besides the bleak poetry, the friendship-knows-no-bounds novel, and the prize-winning essay on Eleanor Roosevelt that she wrote in adolescence, Mary has written personal pieces and short stories which have been published in various news magazines and small literary journals.
She has a supportive husband and one son, whom she spent 18 years homeschooling. Along the way she realized the joy of writing for children (because kids are just SO cool!). She joined the New England branch of SCBWI while her son was still small and has been busy writing and learning and teaching and learning and writing. . . . With her son securely settled into a college he loves, Mary is working on a fantasy novel, and has just finished a humorous picture book which begins with ants.
A little mystery sprinkled into this mix is good spice for the stew.

Aha! I knew I was sure of my pronunciation for a reason, that I had in fact read the correct pronunciation somewhere. I just couldn't remember where. Thanks, Greg.
Why, yes Jan. Yes, it is my screen name. Now you know. Jabberwocky is my absolute favorite poem ever (I, too, know it by heart.)! And it's slithy with a long i sound. Thanks for the link, Greg. I am (@momeraths) following @publicdomain. Great idea.…
