about Mary

Let’s be real on the internet.

Hi, I’m Mary, the writer behind Trusty Chucks. I’ve been telling stories my whole life; when I was younger, most of them were made up (some people would call them “lies”) and now, as a pretend-adult, I’m pretty consistently telling the truth even when it hurts. Especially when it hurts, actually. These are my stories–raw, embarrassing, funny, hopeful, and real.

Besides writing, I’m a co-host on the Not Terrible podcast. The Not Terrible podcast is a weekly show for the hopeless optimist in all of us. We talk about growing, learning, doing better when we know better, and healing. If you’re interested in anything you’ve read here, you’ll probably like the podcast too.

My wish for this place and these stories is laughter, inspiration, and encouragement.

I live in Indianapolis, Indiana, with my husband, two daughters, and rescue dog, Blue. I have a Bachelor’s degree in secondary English education and a Master’s in curriculum and instruction. I taught middle school and high school English for thirteen years and am currently taking the school year off to pursue a full time writing and creating career. It is the most exciting and most terrifying thing I’ve ever done.

What I pray you leave here with: life is imperfect, but we have hope in a perfect God.

Thanks for stopping by.

On Mondays, you get an email from me. On Wednesdays, we wear pink. Just kidding. I don't wear pink. Also, I've never seen that movie. But I do send out an email every Monday with 5 things for your week. It's worth your time. It's not gonna hurt. It might even help.
