Margot Finke grew up in Queensland, Australia, and lived there for many years. Today Margot lives in Oregon, USA, with her husband. Their three children are grown, and on their own, so she now has plenty of time to write rhyming picture books and midgrade adventures. This late start drives Margot's writing, and pushes her to work at it every day.
"I love writing," Margot says. "It is a constant challenge and joy. My husband is very supportive. He says it keeps me out of mischief."
Several years ago, she founded OPUS and RHYMERS, two online critique groups. Her monthly "Musings" column, on writing for children, appears online at The Purple Crayon, as well as in the Oregon, SCBWI newsletter. Margot also offers a paid critique service for writers who are eager to become published.
Gardening on their acre of property, just outside of town, plus travel and reading, fill in the cracks between her writing.
