I have been writing for quite a while now and love finding out what goes on in the minds of my characters. I am the daughter of a third generation military family who grew up all over the world and happily married to a loving husband who gifted me with two adorable children I had the pleasure of birthing. All three enjoy dragging me away from my characters and showing me the world "outside". (I still think camping should involve "Room Service"!) I am also a voracious reader who devours books and chocolate in between family, writing, and work. Mari welcomes mail from readers.
