Hello, I'm Madeleine - a journalist, content creator, book blogger, historian, novelist and teacher.

And I've been there. Looking up at the ceiling, strolling around the garden, gazing at the stars... with hope that I'm creating the next big thing. Yet I stopped looking... and started to write. I've written science fiction, historical dramas, and speculative thrillers that keep the reader guessing. Oh, and I've learned from the best. Studying creative writing at Macquarie University improved my writing, and I'm excited to share it with you.

Since 2019, I've run the literature & history blog Snowy Fictions, where I post short stories, articles and listicles all about the magic existing in both fact and fiction. My blog posts are used as educational guides for high schools in the United States, Canada and Australia. I've also given talks on Old English at conferences.

I particularly love medieval literature, and the romantic period. My classes on Skillshare are off-beat, and you won't find another like it. This is because great writing requires a restless mind that thinks outside of the cubes we are stuck in.

There's a long road ahead of us, and we must not only look ahead: but also write.

(Note: I suggest following! I've posted classes on creative writing but plan to publish more about productivity, lifestyle and technology!)
