Marya Layth
Writer & Artist
Driftwood
Who Who Whom?
Marya Layth is a poet, visual artist, and recreational fantasy writer – whatever that means. If you really want to know more about Marya, she suggests you read her poetry.
Speaking of poetry, sometimes she likes to submit her work to literary journals and see what happens. A few of those literary journals have nominated her poems for Best of the Net and the Pushcart Prize. She also was chosen as a finalist in the Write Bloody Publishing contest for her poetry collection Driftwood.
When she isn't writing, designing, or being weird on social media, she is keeping it real with her cat somewhere in New Jersey. Actually, she is usually doing all of those things simultaneously.
