Unlike many other writers, Macrae did not find it difficult to publish her work and sold her very first work in 1989 to Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine. She has always loved writing short stories since they did not require as much time to write, given that she had small children. Molly Macrae has been writing for over thirty-five years though she came into the public limelight when she started writing novels. She also loves to read, do crossword puzzles, try out new recipes, and find reasons for not doing any weeding or dusting. When she is not writing or editing her novels, she loves to go to the public library where she connects with children. She currently lives in a small ancient house in Champaign, Illinois, in a small neighborhood within walking distance of a park, restaurants, and work. For more than twenty years before she became an established author, Macrae had her short stories featured on Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine. Living in Jonesborough, she worked as a curator of a history museum, and ran the now defunct independent bookstore the “Book Place”. The focus on small town living is inspired by Molly Macrae’s life, that for the most part was spent the Blue Ridge Mountains of Tennessee.
