Karen Martin
Karen Martin is an acclaimed Australian indie author. She is known for running away with the circus, creating plays in prisons, and striving for transformational theatre experiences. She received awards for her work and funding support to write in situ. She learned to listen when the muses whispered in her ear.
Her debut novel Dancing the Labyrinth was written while living in Crete. The Greek translation is published by Radamanthys Publications. Her second novel, The Bringer of Happiness was inspired from Languedoc folklore of Mary Magdalene. Karen’s third novel, Delphi is the sequel to Dancing the Labyrinth but can be enjoyed as a stand-alone. Her creative non-fiction The Little Book of Red Flags takes a humorous approach to a relationship breakdown.
