Hi, I'm Marnie.

I grew up in Moore, Oklahoma, where a massive tornado swept down the plains and destroyed my childhood home. I've been writing dark and twisty stories ever since. I love weaving tales where nothing is as it seems, and darkness lurks just below the surface. I have held various job titles over the years, ranging from a self-defense instructor to a funeral director’s apprentice, both of which inform my writing to this day. And, no, unfortunately I wasn’t named after the film by famed master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, but sometimes I tell people I was anyway. It’s just too good of a coincidence to pass up.

Where You Can Find Me

  • Substack

    On Substack I write about the most personal parts of my life, my fury, my joy, and my pain, tying it back to things that move me, whether that's a Stevie Nicks concert or a book on women in horror film. Essays have long been a way that I make sense of the frightening world around me. If you like thoughtful personal pieces that might deeply resonate with the untamed part of you, check it out.

  • Patreon

    Patreon is a place where I share the behind the scenes aspects of the stories and art I create. Think of this as the most inner of all inner circles. It's here where I'll share covers first, excerpts from new books, even more personal writing, and monthly short stories you can't get anywhere else. Come join us at midnight in the candlelight.
