Maggi Margaret Turner lives on Green Pastures Horse Farm in Brentwood, Tennessee, with her husband, Cal, various horses, several dogs, and the occasional cat. She grew up in Kentucky only ten miles from Mammoth Cave. Before moving to Tennessee, she worked in administration for an engineering firm (she could type one hundred words a minute and even learned how to build fuse boxes). Her real passions are music, family, writing, and animals. As a performer, Maggi sings alto and soprano in church choirs, is self-taught on the baritone ukulele and harmonica, and has sung backup on country music demos. She is a published songwriter and likes to write lullabies using only the black keys on the piano. (When she writes jazz, blues, hymns, and boogie-woogie music, she uses the white and the black keys). Maggi enjoys working with arts groups such as the Blair School of Music, the Nashville Institute for the Arts, and the Tennessee Dance Theater. Margarita, a giraffe at the Nashville Zoo, is named after her (Maggi Margaret stuck her neck out to create the exhibit and was its major funder). I, the Fly began as one of more than five hundred poems she has written. Maggi also writes short stories and is working on a children's book about how kids see the moon and the universe. See less
