Gloria DawnAs a child, Gloria dreamed up stories that always included dogs and horses. Ironically, in public school when assigned to write a composition, she panicked and her mind went blank - she couldn't think of a single word to write. Being secretary and prss reporter for local horse and dog clubs introduced Gloria to writing. She moved to Alberta and was hired as 'cookee' or cook's helper on a ranch near Okotoks. It was the best summer of her life; she got to ride horses and watch local horse shows on her Sundays off. Gloria later married and farmed in North Western Ontario. As a widow, she finally started writing. Her first novel, The Floating Dock, was published in 2018 under the pen-name Marnie McFadden. It is #3 in her Blue Canadian Rockies series. Future books will be published under her own name. This novel, #1 in the series, precedes and leads up to the events in The Floating Dock, as does Texas Two-Step, #2 in the series which will follow soon. Read More Read Less
