Mary Scheurer was born in Manchester, but now lives in France and teaches just across the border in Switzerland, where she loves to travel by steamboat on the lakes, by train through the mountains, or on foot as long as the land is flat. She also enjoys snowshoe treks especially if there’s a fondue at the end of the day. Her work has been published in the anthologies, Did I Tell You?, Not only the Dark, Offshoots 10 and The Geneva Times, and you can find her work on the Leman Poets website.
