She began her first novel about horses at age nine but ended up publishing a different one in 2009. Orysia graduated from the University of Western Ontario with a degree in Zoology, and from Kansas State University in Agricultural Sciences. She currently resides on a small farm on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Orysia maintains a website at www.orysiadawydiak.com/
