I love creating my own worlds in short stories, novellas, and novel-length works of fantasy and science fiction. As a child I wrote because it took me away to places and times not my own, without thought of a future career. After a long detour called life – serving in the military, raising four children, studying computer programming and accounting – I returned to my first love of writing. I’m currently working on the dark fantasy trilogy The Last Bonekeeper, as well as a short story collection in the same universe. In a departure from the speculative fiction genre, I took on the pen name of Cate Macabe and authored This New Mountain (Casa de Snapdragon Publishing, 2012), the memoir of private investigator AJ Jackson.

Hello KL – I just wanted to thank you for liking my post, My Mother, the Nun. Right after you hit that button, I received another little orange notification telling me that I just received my official 500th like (accumulated likes) on my posts. That was you! Kind of a little thrill on a quiet Sunday. Cheers!
You’re welcome. And thanks for dropping by to let me know — I’ve never been someone’s 500th-like!
Hi KL, I nominated you for the 777 challenge if you are inclined. No pressure, but I’d love a snippet of what you’re working on. Here’s the link: http://mythsofthemirror.com/2015/07/17/the-777-writers-challenge/
Thanks for thinking of me! I’d be glad to participate in the 777 challenge.
Great. I’m looking forward to reading a bit of your WIP :-)
Hi KL. I have always had a deep desire to write. and I have lots of starts, but nothing finished. I’m VERY green, and wanted to know what are good resources for answering dumb questions like, I’m writing about a girl who goes on an archaeology dig, but I know NOTHING about archaeology.
Thank you for your blog….
Sincerely, Jil Freitag
So glad to have found your blog through Myths of the Mirror! I’m looking forward to reading about more of your writing experiences!
Thank you for making it all the way to my About page! (And I do love Diana and Myths of the Mirror!) I’m hoping to share my fiction writing here on my blog in the new year, as well as the journey. On my way over to your blog now…
That’s great – thanks for visiting me too! :)
