About

Edwards Manor brings together the established strands of Mary Edwards’ work into a single, intentional space.

Over time, her efforts in education, writing, research, and creative reflection have developed along parallel paths. This site represents the decision to gather those paths into one home — allowing the ideas, projects, and perspectives that have shaped her work to exist in conversation with one another.

 Edwards Manor reflects a moment of alignment. It offers a place where the fullness of her professional and creative life can be encountered as a whole.  #EdwardsManorLife

Creative Author

Mary Edwards is a storyteller and educator who writes across genres to honor memory, identity, and imagination. A devoted teacher and lifelong learner, she brings her love of language and cultural tradition into every piece she creates—whether it’s a picture book, reflective essay, or midrashic narrative. Her work invites readers of all ages to see themselves with compassion and courage. Mary is the author of Good Night, Malcolm and Malcolm Makes His First Challah (coming soon), stories inspired by the joys of motherhood and intergenerational connection. When she’s not teaching or writing, she enjoys quiet mornings, caring for her beloved dog Patrick, and finding wonder in life’s everyday rituals.

My Boys

A proud dog mom to two adorable rescue pups from the Humane Society of Eastern Carolina—Sir Patrick of Puppydom, and the late Sir Conner (2014-2022). They are definitely spoiled, but I won't apologize for that. They are the reason for #EdwardsManorLife
