Welcome to our New Historical Fiction Editor!

Mary Woods is a Ruthenian Byzantine Catholic and a seeker of adventure, both the real-life and the fictional varieties. After discovering a love of the classical Great Books curriculum, she chose to attend Wyoming Catholic College. There, when she wasn’t immersing herself in the integrated study of poetry, philosophy, and theology, she rode horses, rappelled off cliffs, and backpacked deep in the Rocky Mountain wilderness. All of this experience she considers relevant to her writing. She loves tales of deep beauty and high danger, stories where the extraordinary breaks through the ordinary, stirring the most fundamental desires of the human soul. For her undergraduate thesis she studied the relationship between God’s creative power and the artistic skills of the fiction writer. She has written fantasy, historical fiction, and is currently venturing into the perilous realm of science fiction. She works as a freelance editor.
