About the author

Mary Rowen

<p>I&rsquo;m drawn to stories about women facing and overcoming challenges at various stages of life, so I love reading and writing women&rsquo;s fiction. Music, musicians, and music fans tend to find their way into my work too.</p> <p>Other interests include feminism, body image issues, parenting, and current events. I blog about that stuff and more whenever I can. My essays have been featured on numerous sites and blogs, including Mutha Magazine, Feminine Collective, and Huffington Post.</p> <p>A graduate of Providence College, I was raised in the Massachusetts Merrimack Valley, and live in the Boston area with my family and pets.</p>
