Writer

"I no longer believe in a God who is less loving than I am." That realization was the catalyst for Malia Taylor to end her marriage, reshape her community, and her faith. It also made her a writer. As a single mother of four in Los Angeles, she became a Massage Therapist & Healer to support her family as she honed her craft. Identifying as asexual in midlife reframed everything. Her writing is an invitation to belonging — evoking catharsis, connection, and restorative hope. Descended from Stanner E.V. Taylor, a pioneering storyline writer of the silent film era, she inherited his reverence for what is left unspoken. Through writing she found her voice — and in finding it, rediscovered the power of Silence. A Field Full of Wishes is the story she was born to tell.
