and make art.
Who?
Mari is the pen name of a disabled Native American mom, artist, and writer whose greatest claim to fame was being born the year Star Wars first premiered. (Original Edition, yay!)
Doctors diagnosed her with Cerebral Palsy at age 4, and told her mother that “she wouldn’t live past 14.” 1980 was a trip, apparently. Society diagnosed her with being “American Indian,” though her First Nations Reserve is in Canada. Now she lives with her family (including her mom) on Arapaho, Suhtai, Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ and Očeti Šakówiŋ lands. You can read more about her here:
When people ask me what my job is, I tell them I scream at the internet all day.
What? No, seriously:
I am a professionally published speculative fiction writer and poet, and visual artist.
