Mary editing a manuscriptWelcome to my neck of the woods!

I'm glad you stopped by.

My name is Mary Morton Cowan, and I write for children. I have a lot to share with you – about being a children's author, about my writing, and about me.

Here I am at work, revising a manuscript. 

Library research And here I am in a library, reading. 

Research is an important part of my writing. I recently completed a biography about Donald B. MacMillan, an Arctic explorer. Before writing the book, I read hundreds of pages from his diaries and journals. The book will be published in 2010 by Boyds Mills Press. 
 

Look for some of my articles next April in Cobblestone, in their issue about the discovery of the North Pole.

 Feel free to browse through my site. I hope you enjoy your visit. And come again anytime.
