Autorenporträt
Maryann Miller, an award-winning author, has been in love with story-telling since she was a child, when the books she read took her to fantastical places on wonderful adventures.

She started her professional career as a journalist, writing columns, feature stories, and short fiction for regional and national publications. At one time she was known as the Erma Bombeck of Plano, Texas, for her humor column about the joys of family life. Her novels are primarily mysteries, with an occasional romance, or short story collection, or mainstream novel thrown into the mix.

Miller is the recipient of the Page Edwards Short Story Award for her story Maybe Someday and the New York Library Best Books for Teens Award for her nonfiction book, Coping With Weapons And Violence In School and On Your Streets. Her mystery, Doubletake, was honored as the Best Mystery by the Texas Association of Authors. She took first-place in the short story and screenwriting competition at the Houston Writer's Conference and was a semi-finalist at Sundance for her script "A Question of Honor." She was also a semi-finalist in the Chesterfield Screenwriting Competition with the adaptation of Open Season, the first book in the Seasons Mystery Series.

When not writing, Miller loves to play on stage and work in her garden - two creative pursuits that bring great joy, along with coloring and quilting. She lives in Texas with her dog and three cats. The cats rule, and the dog is very patient.
