About Margie
Margie Gelbwasser is a freelance writer and novelist who has written for various magazines, including SELF, LHJ, Women's Health, New Jersey Monthly, Girl's Life, Instructor and Writer's Digest. Her essays about growing up Russian and Jewish have appeared in Waking Up American: Coming of Age Biculturally and Smith Magazine. Besides stories with Russian-Jewish elements, she also likes writing about education, the writing craft, and life in the oh so exciting suburbs of NJ. YA novels are especially fun because they give her a chance to rewrite her high school days. She has an adorable, increasingly stubborn two year old who loves trucks, leaf blowers, lawnmowers and cleaning (but not his own messes), two licky cats, and a husband who rocks in math (which is perfect for an English major girl). Smirnoff's Daughter (Flux, November 2010) is her first YA novel. She is currently at work on her second YA book (Flux, Fall 2011) and a MG book.
