Hello Happy People,
Today Dianne brings you her chat with Mary Carroll Moore. Mary has always been a creative person but chose to express this side of herself through painting and did not turn to writing until later in life. It wasn't until turning 50 that she decided to returned to college to complete a MFA in Fiction.
Mary began writing what she knew, creating characters who were foodies and artists, two things she is personally passionate about. She wrote three novels, including Qualities of Light, a YA queer novel. This title earned her a nomination for PEN/Faulkner and Lambda Literary awards.
Since shifting to creative writing, Mary has penned around two hundred articles, essays, and short stories which have been published in literary journals and magazines. She began teaching online writing workshops for the Loft Literary Center, Grub Street, Madeline Island School of the Arts, as well as for other venues. This teaching experience gave birth to her book on the craft of writing, Your Book Starts Here, which earned her the New Hampshire Literary “Reader’s Choice” award in 2011.
To further her educational reach, Mary started a weekly newsletter that has brought her followers from around the globe and earned awards for her work. In her newsletter, she shares tips on how to structure a book, writing ideas, and author interviews. She also started a YouTube channel which has earned more than 200,000 views for her video tutorials.
When not writing, Mary loves to travel and continues to paint. She lives with her husband and their two long-haird miniature dachshunds.
