Writing inspirational essays and poetry is a way of seeking — and conveying — the invisible. It also helps us to see beauty in others. Good words — like choice musical notes — quiet the restless soul. As a reader, my taste varies. I’m particularly drawn to the works of Jane Austen, Edith Wharton, Ann Radcliffe and J.R.R. Tolkien. Some of my writing falls into the genre of Jane Austen fan fiction (see menu above).

To satisfy her talkative inner life, Mary enjoys composing stories, poetry, and writing in the third person.
