I’m Katie. Hello!

I am a poet and novelist, a writer of imaginative historical fiction for young folks. My writing is most inspired by the stories of the past and the wonders of nature. I love wandering old cemeteries and hiking forest trails. I am a lifelong Hoosier with deep Indiana roots, and most of my books have ties to Indiana history. I live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband and our four kids-- and many cats and dogs, too!

Do come in. You can read a little more about me here, check out my blog, and learn more about my books here. Also, be sure to sign up for my monthly newsletter for a free short story and kids’ writing activity, too!

Thanks for stopping by!
