Margaret Afseth

Sadly, Margaret Afseth passed away March 1st, 2018. In memory of her amazing work as an author, her books are still available through her daughter's Amazon account under author Kathleen Morris. She was a beautiful person, and her stories are no exception. Her many creative characters will live on forever in her books as she had wanted them to. Below is her biography, remaining as it was when she was busy creating her stories. We miss you mom!

If anything, Margaret Afseth is a survivor. She spent most of 2014 battling Cancer, a tumor pressing on the optic nerve. Now she counts herself among the rare few who, in her words, conquered the 'Beastie'. Though now of low vision, with the aid of her daughter to publish, she continues to write.

From an early age, she was making up stories. While raising her four children alone, she wrote her first novel...in long hand. Unfortunately, she gave the only copy of the manuscript to someone of the opinion, she should not be writing at all. He burned it.

Discouraged, she went underground, not surfacing again until her senior years, when at the age of seventy, 2013, she wrote and published, as a three part series, the lost novel, calling it The Aopato Chronicles.

Since then, Margaret has gone on to write the Noor Chronicles, published 2014, the last book of which was written while she was undergoing Chemo and Radiation treatment.

Her present set of novels are the Deception series. These books take a good look at survival in our most imperfect world...

Margaret is a widow, with four grown children, five grandchildren, and one great grandchild. Her experience comes not from academic education, but from the great reservoir of knowledge, gained from observing human nature.
