Hart is a retired medical transcriptionist living in the city of trees and Ph.Ds in Southern California. She shares her lodgings with a ginger-and-white cat, Tormund Hartsbane, as her sole companion and muse. She's written and published a series, Lisen of Solsta, as well as a paranormal romance set in the "swinging 60s" called Soul Doubt. She began writing Meru's story to mitigate the pain of her wounded inner child who failed to live up to her mother's ideals, but Meru's tale has now grown beyond Hart's expectations, and she can't wait for you to read it and maybe even let her know what you think.

Although Hart's not as visible as some on social media, she can be found on Facebook as DHartStMartinAuthor, TikTok  @originalhart, Threads @hart.stmartin, Instagram  @hart.stmartin, and X (which she will never stop calling Twitter) @hartstm. Why she didn't use the same handle for all of these, she will not (or cannot) explain.
