Magpiemazy is known as Maggie to her friends and has been writing since she first learned to put pen to paper. Her first full-length, three-page story was hand-printed at the age of ten.

Having retired early, she planned to make up for lost time and devote most free time to her craft. Fortune didn't shine on that plan, so she grabs whatever moments are available and tries to make more of them.

Once wife of a delightful man and mother to two children plus several who've adopted her, she enjoyed life. As a widow of ten years, her family, especially her daughter and her pets, offered inspiration. Maggie's better half once encouraged her by listening to every, single story she wrote, offering his most valued opinion. Now, having returned to her childhood home, where she cared for her brother for five years until his death in 2019, her sister took up the mantle of co-writer and willing listener/opinion giver. January 30, 2022, her daughter Jaimie, after suffering from double viral pneumonia for eight long weeks and almost recovering, had a heart attack and died. Writing, which has always been her solace in times of trouble, has deserted her for now.

She has had one book and several magazine articles published. Winning a contest earned her a nice paycheck, plus a radio interview and a chapter in a well-known author's last collection of stories.

Her favorite writing genre can't be determined; she enjoys trying all of them.

And through her moves from Pennsylvania, to Florida to Alabama and now back to Florida, she gathered the friendship of Carol North and the co-authorship of a blog "Sexy Sassy Seniors" which tries to uproot the dull, boring, views of people moving into their senior years. They discuss everything from learning to date after death or divorce of a mate to making your finances last, especially through the rigors of scammers who want nothing more than to get their greedy fingers on senior monies.

She looks at life with eyes of reason, a soul of romance and a childish desire to live every moment to the max. The one thing she wants to share with those she meets is a welcoming smile.

Laughter keeps a body young,
helps make friends when it's
flung.
It makes one's heart beat with joy
in man, woman, girl or boy.
I've ne'er been able to get my
fill
and my hope is that you never
will.
