Maryanne Coleman has been telling stories since she could speak. Her pen name is taken from her great-grandmother, her first ever audience. She works with her husband - M J Trow - on his Marlowe series and is always on the lookout for her next characters, though if you recognize anyone in her books, it is entirely coincidental. She lives in the Isle of Wight in a Victorian vicarage with faeries in the wainscoting, and believes wholeheartedly that fiction is very definitely stranger than truth.
