Having retired from teaching mathematics for over 20 years, Marcia now spends much of her time painting and writing.

Her two recently published books combine Marcia’s professional and personal interests while reflecting her priority of faith and relationships. A healthy dose of humor, camaraderie, and suspense is sprinkled throughout her writing.
