    **About Me**
    Sara Marks is a modern woman with plenty of classic problems - just like the women she writes about.
    After a mid-life crisis and failing out of college at the age of twenty, Sara decided to live the life she wanted, not the one expected of her. Now a librarian with two master's degrees, she plans never to stop getting over-educated. She started writing as part of the National Novel Writing Month program nearly twenty years ago. She likes to write women who are like her: feminists who learn to live their life their way, rarely worrying about their age, weight, marriageability, or fertility. They fail and find second, third, and (sometimes) fourth chances to correct their mistakes.
    Sara’s a hopeless romantic who is fiercely independent. She loves knitting and traveling in her free time. She lives with her dog Cedric Doggory. She also writes horror and fantasy books under the pen name S.R. Marks.
    I'm open to collaborations! Email me: srmarksauthor@gmail.com

    A writer can never have too many notebooks. 🤣

    It was so cool to hear about your process for this! And DAMN your collection sounds really great. I love that whole short stories but a bigger story too. I bet it will be a blast to write!

      Thank you! I think it’s like most creative pursuits - lots of great ideas and plans that have to be balanced with time and energy!

    I would love to see you talk about the anthology process a bit, like you mentioned. I want to primarily be a short romance author, and I'm curious what the alternative paths for short stories are and how that might work with stories that are in a series like yours would be.

      I’m happy to talk about my experiences with it! I’ve created my own anthologies and been an author in bigger ones.

    We had to remove the clothes line from the back of our home to the tree line since the hoa said so, and we have had our electricity bill increased because of that. The line was visible from the road.

      That’s fairly common, unfortunately. HOAs are always about the aesthetics rather than the functionality of people’s lives. Even in a townhouse community, where I expected to have limitations, our property managers get rigid about what we can keep on our back porches.

      Yes! I think I bought a kit with it once upon a time. I have a few of their things.
