About the Creator
About the Creator
Maren is a born-and-raised Nevadan whose geologist father thought good parenting included exploring abandoned mineshafts with his children.
A geographer by training, an award-winning writer by practice, she draws on her experiences (as an environmental consultant, international aid worker, construction grunt, tango dancer, refuge for misfit teens, and more) to tell stories about how people transform despair into purpose.
She has been awarded residencies at Hedgebrook and Storyknife and her screenplays have been recognized by Screencraft, Golden Script, The Writers Lab, CineStory, Stowe and more. Her first book is due for publication in late 2025.
