maggie davis is the publisher of Heartsong Books. She is the author of over ten books for people of all ages, including Caring in Remembered Ways, Choices of a Growing Woman, A Garden of Whales, Roots of Peace, Seeds of Hope , and Glory! to the Flowers (Read the Story-Behind-the-Story of Roots, Choices and Glory!). By donation, maggie is lay-herbalist, flower essence practitioner and Reiki II practitioner in her community—also, co-founder, on her peninsula, of Neighborcare—a volunteer-run, joyful band of neighbors who, free-of-charge, are pleased to assist individuals of every circumstance who fall between the cracks of the health-care system. (This service embraces both neighborly spontaneity and exquisite mindfulness. It celebrates group work, as well as the individual who, to be of most benefit, must bloom truly by being all s/he is. In addition, caring is offered in full consciousness that each act, large or small, born from a marriage of mind and heart in harmony, holds potential for universal good. People already volunteering without a group know that by signing on they add their spirit to the core energy of the service, which in turn becomes magically more than the sum of its parts.) In years past, maggie has been a mediator, counselor, teacher, trainer, waitress, poet, editor, radio talk show host, co-owner/founder of a nationally-known concert-cafe, and wife, mother, and grandmother in a lively "Brady Bunch" family. She has lived in the suburbs, in a motor home, on a houseboat, on a working farm, in a cottage by the sea. She now lives and writes and publishes, amidst rocks and moss and wildflowers, in a cabin she built, several years ago, in the woods in East Blue Hill, Maine.

| "For over twenty years, I was published by others. Then, in 1993,
I created Heartsong Books to express a burgeoning kinship vision. This
all-embracing vision weaves throughout all Heartsong books. It permeates
every aspect and level of my work from book creation to book production
to book distribution. My latest book Glory! to
the Flowers is the second in a line of Heartsong books celebrating
kinship with all life. "When I can, I work with local printers. Most often when my books come off the press, I'm there. Publishing my own books, I collaborate with local illustrators. (At age fourteen, Cara Raymaker illustrated Glory! in my cabin while I wrote or made soup!)"
