About
Hello! My name is Marie (she/her). I am a writer living in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with my husband, Alan, and our demon-child cat, Oliver (and his new partner in crime, Alfred). My writing centers on my experience of bipolar 1 disorder, the deconstruction of my former traditionalist Catholic faith and values, and my newfound exploration of the erotic as a queer and disabled woman in our harsh contemporary American landscape.
You can find much of my deconstruction story over at Patheos Catholic on my column, The Shoeless Banshee: Meanderings Beyond the Pale. I also wrote many guest pieces for like-minded Patheos columns: Suspended in her Jar and Sick Pilgrim. You can find those pieces listed here.
Recently my work has shifted to the realm of flash nonfiction and poetry. You can find a list of my recent publications here.
I occasionally post poems and other musings on my blog. I hope you'll check it out, and send me a note, too! I'd love to connect.
