Madeleine Cahill is a New York City based writer. She has an affinity for whodunnit mysteries, absurdist comedy, and desserts featuring a hint of ginger. Her guilty pleasures are jukebox musicals, real estate reality tv, and the music of Fred Armisen.

Intense focus on breaking down dramatic conventions, applying, and subverting them in my my own writing. Took theory and liberal arts classes to round out overall education.
