Margo
Fallis was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. When she
was 7 years old, her parents,
three brothers and one sister
sailed on an ocean liner to Geelong, Victoria,
Australia. Life was different
there and her mother couldn't
adjust to Christmas in the summertime, so
three years later, at age 10, they
moved again, via ocean liner, to
Glendale, California.
After 2 years in the Los Angeles area,
a final move
was made to Salt Lake City, Utah.
Margo
graduated from East High School in SLC and got
married shortly after that. She
had 5 children, four girls and a son.
Because of
her large family, Margo started writing
stories to read to her children
when she tucked them
in at night. As time passed, she
started selling her
stories to magazines and got a job
writing children's
stories for the Ministry of Tourism of
Egypt and also
worked for a similar company in Jordan,
helping
promote tourism there.
Margo wrote
articles for The SPectrum, the local
newspaper of St. George, Utah
and also did
cover/feature stories for St. George
Magazine. She
began writing for several Arab
magazines and traveled
through the Arab world, interviewing
people such as
members of the royal family of Jordan.
Margo also
was thrilled to interview such authors as
Clive Cussler, Mary Higgins
Clark and Richard Paul
Evans.
A few years
after her divorce, Margo remarried and
moved to Atlanta, Georgia where
she currently resides
with her husband, Thom Fallis. Her
children and seven
grandchildren still live in the western
USA and she
misses them. At this time she writes
children's
stories for Electric Scotland, a huge
website and is
happy and proud to have finished this
CD with Gordon
Nicol.
Margo keeps
herself busy watercolor painting, drawing,
writing, studying algebra,
physics, chemistry, biology
and physiology. She studies Islamic
architecture and
the Italian Rennaisance artists. This
is not all. In
her spare time she is learning to play
bridge, plays
the recorder and is learning to read
and write
Chinese.
She is
currently a member of Stone Mountain
Toastmasters in the Atlanta area
and has just achieved
her CTM, in only 6 months and is
working on her ATM.
Margo hopes
you enjoy the cd as much as she enjoyed
writing the stories for
it.
