Emerald Indigo Gold

After earning bachelor’s and master’s degrees, Mary Ann Noe spent 29 years in Waukesha classrooms, first teaching 7th-grade language arts and social studies, followed by high school English and psychology. Upon retirement, she reinvented herself as an author. Mary Ann publishes novels, nonfiction, and poetry. She spends time reading anything she can get her hands on, writing, and baking (and eating the results). Happily enjoying their grand-children, she and her husband reside in Wisconsin, where she communes with friends and Mother Nature. Paperback: 116 pages Publisher: Kelsay Books (October 21, 2026)
