In addition to my fiction work, I have a professional background in writing, community development, and the performing arts. I can't count the years I have spent helping organizations tell meaningful stories, secure funding, and build programs that strengthen communities...there are too many! But the experiences have informed my understanding of people, place, and purpose.

A native Minnesotan and Washingtonian, I now reside in (and work for) the beautiful City of Las Vegas! My husband and I are empty-nesters who are literally living our vacation. Our adult boys practice politics in Wisconsin and performance in New York. We all need to be in a 12-step program for adopting rescue dogs from the local shelter. The first step is recognizing you have a problem...

If you’d like to hear about upcoming work, behind-the-scenes notes, and early access to new writing, you’re welcome to join my mailing list. You can also find me on social media, where I share reflections on writing, history, and the stories that stay with us. @margeriebruceww
