Maggie McGuinness has always been fascinated by people and the ways they relate to each other. Now, after years of observing and experiencing life in all its wonderful, messy glory - it's time to write about it! Maggie lives in a corner of Australia in a remote coastal town called Mallacoota, which is surrounded by the ocean, inland waterways, and beautiful native forests. Her housemate, best buddy, and constant shadow is a neurotic but cute rescue dog called Tilly. Currently working in bushfire recovery and doing freelance editing for a living, Maggie lives in hope of one day being able to spend her days wearing PJs, drinking tea, and writing fiction. Her hobbies are walking Tilly on the beach, learning the art of wood splitting, and perfecting her own extreme sport of combining Zumba dance moves and cooking.
