Autorenporträt
Ann was born and half-raised in the Chicago area. She and her family moved to the Wisconsin Northwoods when she was closer to thirteen than twelve. Living in both locations has given Ann M. a useful insight as a writer to both city life and country. A knack for writing (along with a healthy lifelong dose of ongoing daydreaming and imagination) gained Ann M. employment consisting of writing newsletters and advertising for several businesses. Forever writing unshared stories, it wasn't until her twins were raised and with children of their own, did Ann M. finally find time to get truly serious about her stories. Finding the courage to share her secret writings with a couple of friends and a few family members, Ann M. captured the encouragement to complete her first novel, Dog Island. She is currently working on her second novel: The Caregiver.
