Anna Marie Cain is a writer, puzzle enthusiast and queer, disabled Army Veteran (which is how she learned she’s immune to riot gas). After deploying to Iraq, she was honorably discharged from the Army (as Sergeant Cain) and received her BA from the University of Washington in English with a creative writing focus. After working at agencies and in-house as a copywriter for years, the pandemic inspired her to pursue her writing craft further. In 2023, she received her MFA in fiction from Sarah Lawrence College as a Kalodner and Graduate Scholarship recipient.
Anna Marie has published fiction in the Northwest Review and regularly contributed interviews/literary critiques to the LosAngeles Review of Books. She resides in Brooklyn with her rescue pup turned service dog, Baxter (who for the record is a very good boy), and is in the middle of revising her first novel.
