Maria Kuutti

Olen syntynyt 1980 ja elänyt suurimman osan elämästäni Kangasniemellä. Lapsuuteni asuin kyläkoulua vastapäätä ja tiesin kuulemma jo ekaluokkalaisena haluavani opettajaksi. Myös kirjoitusinto näkyi pienenä, sillä alaluokan opettajani kutsui minua runotytöksi. Äitini työskenteli pitkään kirjastovirkailijana, joten kirjat ovat kuuluneet aina merkittävänä osana elämääni.

Lukion jälkeen halusin opiskella kirjoittamista ja kirjallisuutta. Pääsin Helsingin yliopistoon ja opiskelin siellä yleistä kirjallisuustiedettä. Veri veti kuitenkin takaisin Kangasniemelle, joten viimeistelin maisterinopintoni Jyväskylässä. Minusta tuli äidinkielenopettaja vuonna 2005.

Kirjojen lisäksi toinen intohimoni on kuntoilu. Voin kertoa, että liikunta kannattaa aina, si
