ABOUT KATIE

Katie is a lover of words. If there is an emotion that could extend beyond that, regarding words, she is that. Whatever that is. 

 Good words (and good books) have shaped her world and continue to fuel her imagination. She believes literature and magic are one and the same, and that there is no lesson worth learning nor character worth discovering that hasn’t first lived within the pages of a well-plotted tale. (That is to say, people are equal parts delightful and dastardly, both in life and in literature.) 

By day, she co-owns a boutique marketing agency, where she helps businesses find their voice through branding, web design, and copywriting. 

She earned an MFA in creative writing and is pursuing a doctorate in history, blending research and story in ways that feel surprisingly cohesive.

Originally from Utah, Katie and her family have made a home in rural Kentucky, where life is often slowed down by tractors on the road or the occasional rogue farm animal.

It’s humid and green and lovely and she adores every minute.

Her world is anchored by her hero of a husband and her beautiful daughters, who have recently stepped into adulthood—leaving her with more time and tenuous emotions, which do seem to transfer well to storytelling. 

Outside of work and writing, she is happiest with a good book in hand, a Dr Pepper within reach, and a John Wayne film or British crime series playing in the background.
