Margo Fallis was born
in Edinburgh, Scotland. When she
was 7 years old, her
parents, three brothers and one
sister sailed on an
ocean liner to Geelong, Victoria,
Australia. Life was
different there and her mother
couldn't adjust to
Christmas in the summertime, so
three years later,
at age 10, they moved again, via
ocean liner, to Glendale,
California.
After 2 years in the
Los Angeles area, a final move
was made to Salt Lake
City, Utah.
Margo graduated from
East High School in SLC and got
married shortly after
that. She had 5 children, four
girls and a son.
Because of her large
family, Margo started writing
stories to read to
her children when she tucked them
in at night. As time
passed, she started selling her
stories to magazines
and got a job writing children's
stories for the Ministry
of Tourism of Egypt and also
worked for a similar
company in Jordan, helping
promote tourism there.
Margo wrote articles
for The SPectrum, the local
newspaper of St. George,
Utah and also did
cover/feature stories
for St. George Magazine. She
began writing for several
Arab magazines and traveled
through the Arab world,
interviewing people such as
members of the royal
family of Jordan.
Margo also was thrilled
to interview such authors as
Clive Cussler, Mary
Higgins Clark and Richard Paul
Evans.
A few years after her
divorce, Margo remarried and
moved to Atlanta, Georgia
where she currently resides
with her husband, Thom
Fallis. Her children and seven
grandchildren still
live in the western USA and she
misses them. At this
time she writes children's
stories for Electric
Scotland, a huge website and is
happy and proud to
have finished this CD with Gordon
Nicol.
Margo keeps herself
busy watercolor painting, drawing,
writing, studying algebra,
physics, chemistry, biology
and physiology. She
studies Islamic architecture and
the Italian Rennaisance
artists. This is not all. In
her spare time she
is learning to play bridge, plays
the recorder and is
learning to read and write
Chinese.
She is currently a member
of Stone Mountain
Toastmasters in the
Atlanta area and has just achieved
her CTM, in only 6
months and is working on her ATM.
Margo hopes you enjoy
the cd as much as she enjoyed
writing the stories
for it.
