About Maggie K. West
-
-
Maggie is an adventurer, researcher-of-many-things, and author of the Descendants of Robin Hood series.
.
She pulls her childhood obsession of Robin Hood into this middle-grade retelling that takes a spin into the consequences of sorcery with corrupted monsters, rival nations, dark sorcerers, and the journey of Robin Hood’s descendants to control their elemental powers—remnants of an ancient curse.
.
She is based in the Rocky Mountains, where there are forests, so obviously she’s qualified to write a Robin Hood retelling. When she is not reading other people’s novels, she plays D&D, goes on adventures with her dog Bilbo, and generally geeks out about things.
.
Some things she needs you to know about her include:
- Her favorite movie franchise of all time is Pirates of the Caribbean. Because CIRCLES and FORESHADOWING and ALL THE THINGS.
- She has synesthesia with taste. Chocolate’s purple, in case you were wondering.
- She is fluent in Pig Pen code. Is it a useless skill? Yes. Does she feel cool doing it? Also yes.
- She has a 9 lb dog named Bilbo Waggins. Yes, he does have curly hair, a toy dragon, and a toy Sting.
