edit data

Kate discovered she wanted to be a writer at the age of 8, when her love of Nancy Drew novels inspired her to start writing.

In 2009, she took a one-way ticket to Africa, re-wilding herself. Her story would become her breakthrough memoir, Ways to Come Home – a finalist for the 2017 Finch Memoir Prize.

She is currently a writer-in-residence working on her first romantic comedy fiction book, and loving every minute of the juicy details.

A contemporary writer, naturalist and poet, Kate is happiest with the wind on her face and leaves in her hair. She is a cheese lover, whiskey enthusiast and loves walking in the rain, with her one-eyed rescue dog, Maximus.
