Suzanne d’Corsey is the author of the Scottish novel The Bonnie Road, and The Chaga Hunters and Other Stories. Her stories, essays, reviews, and poems have appeared in diverse journals, such as Chapman (Scotland), Poet Magazine, The Anglican Theological Review, Sage Woman, Harrington Lesbian Fiction Quarterly, The Arkansas Review, Eclectica.org, Mystic Fiction, and many others, which included a Pushcart Prize nomination, and a Best of the Web for short fiction. Suzanne was on the team of fiction editors for ‘Nimrod International Journal’ for over a decade.

Suzanne has also had full-length plays, one-acts, short plays, and monologues produced for stage and radio, including “Storm Chasers,” broadcast live by NPR affiliate KWGS. The Oklahoma Repertory Theatre Company produced four of her plays which included the full-length Eros, and Ragnarok, an Honorable Mention in the Jane Chambers Award, plus inclusion in Jerome Lawrence and Robert E.

Suzanne was a Tennessee Williams Scholar at the Sewanee Writers Conference.

She strongly champions the MWPA for the support and camaraderie it offers writers. Two of Suzanne’s full-length plays were finalists in the MWPA’s Awards in the Drama category, in 2020 and 2021. She is a proud member of Belfast Maine’s ‘Locally Grown Books,’ and a mid-coast Fiction Authors’ group.

Suzanne has created audiobooks, including that of her own works, and done some voice over in film. Her many Scottish connections can be traced back to 1978 when she attended the University of St. Andrews, Scotland, Medieval and Scottish History.
