About Me

Stolen from Texas soil as an infant, Maria Zannini grew up in Chicago where she learned how to walk fast and live vertically. She rushed back to Texas as soon as she was legal and discovered the great wide open. 

Chicago became a memory.

After years of working as an advertising artist and art director, Maria now lives in the middle of nowhere on six acres she calls heaven. Half a mile to the north is a lion refuge, to the south, there be alpacas.

Maria writes sensual stories of legend and mythos. 

She also designs book covers and more. Check out Book Cover Diva for more information.
