Donetta Marie grew up in Paradise, a small town in Northern California, in the foothills of the Sierra Mountains. You may know it as the Campfire that destroyed 90% of the town from a wildfire caused by PG&E’s faulty powerlines. She currently resides in Washington, DC. She graduated with Honors from Grand Canyon University with a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education in Social Studies. Her main passion of studies is anything related to Geography.

When Donetta is not writing, she loves to read, watch movies, swim, shop at farmer’s markets, and travel (including the beach with a book in one hand and a rum drink in the other). And she enjoys good food, coffee, wine, conversation with close friends, and snuggling next to someone special by a warm fire.
