Hey, there. I'm Kate. Lover of dogs, sweet treats, and pop music from the last three decades. I am also an avid reader living out my dream of writing the kind of books I would want to read for the fun of it, just trying to make my childhood self proud of who she grows up to be.

I like to write what I feel passionate about without limiting myself to one specific genre or story type. My favorite things to write are resilient women, kind men, and stories that pass the Bechdel Test.

My works:
