I’m pleased that you could take some time to drop by. Always to be found with her nose in a book, she enjoyed exploring fantastical worlds and now loves making up her own.ĭelusions of Sanity: Hi, Mae. Mae grew up among the snow and birch trees of upstate New York, but now makes her home in the urban jungle of Atlanta with her husband, daughter, and two cats. Before we get into the interview, here’s a short bio on our esteemed guest: Mae has crafted a riveting story, and I’m very happy that she’s been willing to come and talk with me about the story and about her writing in general. I’m not going to say that we nerds can be lured into unsavory situations by the tantalizing offer of a magnificent library, I’m just saying that I’m one werewolf who likes always to be armed when I accept tantalizing offers to look at the libraries of strange men. Here’s a tantalizing snippet from Mae’s wonderfully macabre story. The anthology is a re-telling of classic fairy tales, and having had the opportunity to read several of the stories, I’d like to start off by saying that I highly recommend the book. All right, it’s interview time here at Delusions of Sanity, and today’s guest is Mae Baum, who is promoting her story “Bluebeard’s Wives.” Mae’s story appears in the upcoming anthology A Bit of Magic.
