Marion Webb-De Sisto has held a keen interest in Women's Spirituality, Crystal Therapy and the Celestial Hierarchy for the past twenty-seven years. She is a graduate member and former tutor of the International College of Crystal Healing, a Bach Foundation Registered Practitioner and a Reiki Master. Marion is also an experienced teacher/lecturer in both the UK and USA, being a guest speaker at holistic festivals, health shows and The Seeker's Trust. Having lived and worked in the US for many years, she presently resides in South East England with her American husband. Marion has two sons, two step sons, three daughter-in-laws and three grandchildren.
Her work career was closely involved with the education and care of young children. She was a teacher in England, a director of two separate child care centers in Massachusetts and the director of a private school in California. After returning home, she became a local government officer for registering and inspecting all types of education and child care facilities for children under the age of 8. During many of her working years, Marion's attention was given to servicing and protecting abused and neglected children.
Marion's writings have been featured in Diane Stein's books - All Women Are Psychics, Prophetic Visions of the Future, Natural Healing for Dogs & Cats and The Natural Remedy Book for Dogs & Cats. Also in Dick Sutphen's Finding Your Answers Within. Her own books have been available since 2001. Reviewers considered her Angelic Chronicles to be "beautifully written;" a story that "just swoops one along," and then "leaves your heart panging." Marion's non-fiction books are described as "hard to put down," being written in "a clear and understandable fashion."
This popular writer is known to her friends as Maz and she describes herself as a people watcher. She sees the human experience as one that is filled with possibilities and continuous change. The duality that exists within each person fascinates Marion and she uses her many years of working and communicating with people as a blueprint for 'fleshing out' the characters in her novels. She feels she has been inspired to write by her passion for reading from a very early age. In adulthood this developed into a love of different types of literature. Marion enjoys the classics, horror stories, tales of the supernatural, romantic sagas and certain Sci-Fi and Fantasy yarns; and she loves to hear from her readers. Click here to send her an email.
One of Maz's recent publications was the erotic novella 'Malpas' featured in the Writers on the Wrong Side of the Road anthology.
Here's what Maz has to say about the project:
Writers on the Wrong Side of the Road - The most dangerous rule-wreckers from Alternative-Read.com have written stories for this ‘adults only’ anthology. It’s a ‘must have’ book, covering different genres, all speculative fiction and great reading for those times when you want to get lost in the world of “What if?” There’s something for everyone within the pages, no one’s preference has been neglected. The anthology contains seventeen short stories and one novella, entitled Malpas. This is a Fantasy tale written by me, Marion Webb-De Sisto. A modern-day librarian and a demon come together in erotic dreams. Can these two very different individuals, who are drawn together by lust, eventually find true love? For one reviewer, who described this story as an “erotica beauty and beast,” it was her personal favorite.
Creating the story Malpas was a venture into something new for me. Although my previous novels have both angels and demons in them, the stories are not erotic. I’d been giving some thought to writing in that genre, but it wasn’t uppermost in my mind. Then I heard about the proposed anthology and I realized I was being offered the opportunity to try my hand at what is known as erotica. To my surprise the storyline developed easily and I enjoyed exploring my new genre. I guess this becomes obvious when I say I’ve written two further erotic stories since completing the one for the anthology. I’ve discovered a new path and am wandering down it.
And here's a review: Malpas 4.5 stars
Single librarian, Sara Harding, is satisfied with her life. She has a job she loves that’s relatively secure, friends, and family is her dearly loved aunt. Romance and love are no longer at the top of Sara’s list until the dreams begin.
I’m a sucker for a good redemption story. When you combine redemption and true love I’m really a goner. MALPAS does just that but in a way that sets it apart. Malpas’ physical description and prior existence add a wonderful depth and poignancy placing it solidly in my top ten. Loved it.
