J. M. Marnix has lived and worked as a teacher in many countries. Reading books to children has always been very important to her. On request of her class and her own children she started to create her own stories, set in new worlds. The step to writing the stories down was made with the favourite story of her children.
Currently she lives in a small village in the Netherlands, with both her children. She works as a teacher in the Special Needs Education.
