Ginger
Marcinkowski was raised between the two tiny towns of Fort Fairfield, Maine and
Plaster Rock, New Brunswick, Canada, a setting that deeply influenced the
writing of her first novel.
She graduated from William Penn University
with a degree in Business Management, a career she never aspired to.
Ginger's true desire to write returned when she enrolled in a
graduate writing course at Wilkes University of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania
earning her Masters of Fine Art in 2011. She interned with Etruscan Press, and
was a reader for the James Jones First Novel Fellowship. She had previously
studied at Algonkian writers' conferences and has attended the New York Pitch
Conference. She wrote and published short stories in small literary journals
for which she garnered several honorary mentions.
Ginger's first book,
The Edge of Redemption reveals
Ginger's lyical voice as she utilizes her own vivid memories of her life along
a powerful river whose waters both gave and took life.
