M. M. De Voe is an internationally published creator of short fiction and poetry and holds
numerous writing awards in a broad range of genres including poetry, literary fiction,
horror/fantasy, and creative nonfiction. De Voe also runs Pen Parentis, a literary nonprofit she
founded in 2013 to help writers stay on creative track while raising children. She is the author
of Book & Baby, a fun-to-read guide showing parents how to find the time, money and energy to devote to creative writing. The book is organized from infancy to grown-and-flown and
includes personal anecdotes from various established authors. In 2021, it won first prize at the
NextGen Indie Book Awards.  Her debut story collection A FLASH OF DARKNESS just
