I am sensitive and strong. I strive to be authentic and persevere despite obstacles. Most importantly, I am a work-in-progress, and that’s okay." What is Your Superpower? “Motherhood . Not because I'm perfect or crushing it. Ask my kids... I'm not. Quite the opposite, really; but I aim to be a better person than I was the day before, so I can be the best mom for my children using the lessons of yesterday, knowledge of today, and challenges of tomorrow.” Best Writer Advice Received? Perseverance is the name of the game. The perseverance necessary to routinely write without excuses, accept the horribly penned with the eloquently composed, while revising and editing both if it doesn’t serve the story. The perseverance to thoroughly investigate and weigh your publishing options, based on your story’s needs and audience choice. When all else fails, use a writing prompt and get those creative juices flowing! How Should I Balance My Personal & Professional Life? Oh, if I had the answer to that, I would be a trillionaire! The first thing that comes to mind is to create and experiment with a routine or a schedule —and with that said, know when to say "no " or at least "not right now " to unnecessary add-ons to the schedule. Once the schedule or routine is set, maintain boundaries—add it to the calendar as though it were a doctor's appointment (most of us refuse to cancel this!) and ensure it happens. It's not selfish to add "write 300 words," "game-night with the kids," or "go for a 30-minute walk" in your calendar—and follow through.

EVENTS & Save the Dates (coming soon) Coming Soon Media Page & Press Kit mjwarner313@authormjwarner.com Bios & Book Jacket for Press Kit (for debut novel) Author Short Bio MJ Warner writes authentically raw, empathetically healing, and hopeful women’s fiction. She draws her stories from her life experiences and healing journey, which is filled with storms and rainbows, with a touch of inspiration through magical realism and spiritual intervention. With two prior short story anthology publications under her belt (2007, 2017 respectfully) and a 1st place win in 2024 for a short story, Whiskey Nightmares , she hopes to inspire others with her upcoming first novel, Midnight Visits & Feather Kisses , while attending SNHU for a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing with an emphasis on Contemporary Fiction (May 2026 graduation anticipated). She obtained her Professional Writing certificate in May 2025. Author Long Bio “The wounded me – and my inner child’s narrative – would say and believe, 'I’ve had a hard life—I don’t know if I can go on.' The wounded, yet healing me, would say and trust, 'Each day I’m given a new opportunity to grow through this challenge, expressing gratitude for this lesson and welcoming the next.' I hold space for the healed me, wishing to hear words of wisdom, but for today, I choose to live for the present, in the presence, waiting patiently for that day.” ~MJ Warner~ MJ Warner identifies her short fictional works and novels in the same way she describes her path in life—authentically raw, empathetically healing, and empoweringly hopeful. Healing themes dominate her contemporary women's fiction, and magical realism and spiritual intervention peek through the characters' lives. She draws on life experiences and her healing journey — a healthy balance of storms and rainbows. She accepts each life lesson with gratitude and welcomes the opportunity for growth while healing generational cycles. MJ aims to be a better version of herself each day to support her goal and motherhood superpower: being the best mom she can be, drawing on the lessons of yesterday, the knowledge of today, and the challenges of tomorrow. When asked to describe herself, she says, "I am a healer and empath. I am a dreamer and believer. I am sensitive and strong. I strive to be authentic and persevere despite obstacles. I am a work-in-progress, and that’s okay." She and her family make their home in New England, with plans to spend the golden years in the south. Following medical retirement from law enforcement, MJ prioritized self-care, her passions for writing and natural healing modalities, and began slowing down to experience life through her children’s eyes. When she’s not writing, reading, or running off to her kids’ activities, she is savoring the family time, knowing that it passes by all too quickly. Book Jacket for Midnight Visits & Feather Kisses “When I looked in the mirror today, I told myself, ‘It’s going to be okay—even if today is not that day.’ In that perspective, I found courage and peace within myself, which I was seeking.” ~ Lilah Waverly ~ For twenty-six-year-old Lilah Waverly, a devastating month of unexpected loss – first, her parents, then her fiancé, Daniel Higgs – triggers her unraveling mental health. She abandons herself and her parental responsibilities, resulting in a court battle with the Higgs family for guardianship of their only grandchild, Danny. Lilah further risks losing her mother-son bond when she discredits her toddler’s belief that his deceased father is communicating with him. She ventures from the comforts of her coastal New Hampshire home to the once lively summer home in Pawleys Island, where in a span of twenty years she had found friendship and love, deceit and heartbreak, renewed love and a new life—she now seeks truth, forgiveness, and a healed relationship with her son, the Higgs, and herself. For fans of Nicholas Sparks’ contemporary love stories and Mitch Albom’s inspiring hope of the afterlife, Midnight Visits & Feather Kisses captures the realistic journey of self-discovery and healing, offering courage through empowering resilience and perseverance.
