Engaging Stories that Speak to the Soul

My writing mission

I write engaging YA stories that speak to the soul. I also love adding humor (because who doesn’t like a dragon setting off exploding musical flowers at inopportune times? Actually, my characters don’t.)

My characters aren’t perfect. They explore their identity and value. They’re outsiders, searching for a place to belong. But they also grow, laugh, and occasionally fall in love.

My plots aren’t boring. They’re peppered with duels, chase scenes, and escape plots. My favorite types of stories are the ones that keep me turning pages and wondering what happens next, so those are the types of stories I try to write.

I write the kinds of stories I want to read. Stories with exciting plots, characters you can root for, and deep themes. If these are the kinds of stories you enjoy, I’d love to connect.

About me

Hi, I’m Kathryn! I seek to glorify God in everything I do, and I’m passionate about writing stories exploring the value and identity we have in Christ. My writing has been published with Anistemi Publishing and Skillful Pen Press. I’m also a student leader on the Young Writer’s Workshop. I’ve loved stories for as long as I can remember, and I still haven’t entirely given up on finding a door to Narnia in my closet. When I’m not writing or lost in a book, you can find me making jewelry or attempting yet another craft while daydreaming about even more books.
