Maria DiFrancesco

Maria DiFrancesco loves books, ghost stories, and cats. She studied engineering in college, much to the disappointment of her high school English teacher, who thought she should be a writer. After spending many years working in engineering and management at large corporate run companies, Maria decided to write her first novel, Ellicott City Ghost Story. Since then, she has published 9 additional ghost story books.

Maria lives in Ellicott City, Maryland, with her husband and two cats.

Maria DiFrancesco is a pen name used by Robin Sokoloski and is the name of her paternal great grandmother.

Robin also writes science fiction under the pen name Brad St. Marie.
