Marianne Mancusi loved writing and blending genres from an early age, but against her high school English teacher's advice, she went to college for television and film. She ended up getting a job at Channel 7 News in Boston, where she is now a producer, but she couldn't shake the writing bug! In the summer of 2003, Marianne wrote A Connecticut Fashionista in King Arthur's Court a novel that combined her chick lit voice with her love for the King Arthur legend. Fashionista sold to Dorchester in 2004, and Marianne has since sold two more Chick Lit novels to Dorchester, plus four YA books to Dorchester Smooch and Berkley Jam. If writing and tv producing weren't enough to keep Marianne busy, she also enjoys snowboarding, bar hopping, shopping, traveling, and (her favorite guilty pleasure) video games.
