A native of South Louisiana, Marian P. Merritt's passion for the written word began as a child reading on her grandparents' front porch swing—a practice that transported her and inspired her to explore worlds beyond her small community south of New Orleans.
Driven by her roots and her love of the mountains, Marian specializes in Inspirational Southern Women's Fiction and Romance which connects her two loves—the south and the mountains.
She holds a diverse educational background, including a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Therapy and an Accounting Certificate from the University of South Alabama.
Writing from her home in Colorado, Marian invites readers into stories that offer comfort and encouragement—taking them on a faith-filled journey and leaving them with a heartfelt taste of Southern warmth and mountain peace.
