Maram writes fantasy and has lots to say about world-building and trusting your instincts as a writer.</p> <p>Maram is a fantasy writer, born in Montreal, Canada. She was raised in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and liked to escape into books from a very early age and from there into the craft of storytelling. In addition to writing fiction, Maram is also a screenwriter and filmmaker. In 2014 she made her first short film <em>Munkeer</em> and in 2016, <em>Don’t Go Too Far,</em> both of which were screened at the Cannes Short Film Corner. She currently lives in Kingston, Ontario and her novel Weathernose is out right now.</p> <p>Check out Maram's website here and follow her on Twitter @MaramTaibah.</p> <div class="entry-content"> <p><strong>Remember – this is YOUR SHOW so keep <a title= "Joined Up on Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/JUPodcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tweeting us</a>, leave your comments below, check out our <a title="Joined Up on Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/joinedupwritingpodcast" target= "_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Facebook page</a> and the brand new <a href= "https://joinedupwritingpodcast.wordpress.com/join-the-mailing-list/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">newsletter and mailing list</a>.
