Dawn Marie is a true Southern Belle, born with an abundance of beauty, charm, and intellect - raised to be a respectable, yet powerful woman full of love, kindness, and honesty. She was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, and attended the University of West Alabama. She still lives in the city with her husband of 30 years and their Flat-Coated Retriever named "Misha". They have 3 sons who are all either graduates or current students of Auburn University. Dawn Marie has always had an affinity for children and works as a substitute school teacher in grades K through 3. She's also been the Percussion Mom for the high school band for the last four years where everyone calls her "Momma Dawn." Dawn Marie has always had a love and interest in writing and her favored characters are strong, intelligent, powerful young women. Her stories are often true, always fun, and definitely adventurous, all delivered with just a hint of exaggeration, showing real people in real situations. In an interesting life Dawn Marie has traveled extensively, visiting over 20 countries around the world with another 20 coming soon. She passed through Check Point Charlie in East Berlin before the Iron Curtain fell and on one of her scuba diving adventures headlocked a shark. And when she isn't working or writing Dawn Marie is a bit of an adrenalin junkie, loving the great outdoors and enjoying a wide range of thrill-seeking activities including scuba diving, water skiing, and white water rafting. She is also a crack shot with shotguns, rifles, and handguns. Among Dawn's favorite quotes is one she lives her life by and which could metaphorically be applied to a wide range of situations - "Get a shot off fast. This upsets him long enough to let you make your second shot perfect." See less
