When she turned 50, she decided to put her communications degree to good use and start writing children’s fiction. She is forever thankful to Nawaal D at Penguin Random House, who convinced her not to give up and finish the Creative Writing Short Course. This has led her to author Mike Nicol’s Masterclass. The Fat Boy series is inspired by her own and friends’ weight loss experiences and the realization of how little control children have over their parent’s food choices. Her first book, Fat Boy No More, was published in 2020. She is currently busy with the third and last installment in the series. When Marétha is not daydreaming up stories, she works as a Bids and Compliance Officer at a consulting engineering company on the West Rand where she does a lot of not so interesting reading and chasing tender deadlines.view less
