Mara Williams

Mara was born in Seatle, the oldest of six children. After a school career that included working for the school magazine, she married young and settled in Keedysville, Maryland. Born into a family of readers, Mara had never remembered when she wasn't reading or making up stories. So when she was just a child, she pulled out a pencil and notebook and began to write down one of those stories. It was the beginning of her career. Several manuscripts and rejections later, her first professional articles were published in 2012. Mara is a member of several writers' groups and has won countless awards from her colleagues and the publishing industry. She loves writing about travel, fashion, and beauty.
