Kate writes worlds you can get lost in, where you will find fierce female characters who don't need saving, and men who support them. Worlds where you will find flawed, reluctant heroes, myth and folklore, power-hungry villains, complicated alliances and a cast of relatable characters.Kate's writing is influenced by history, sociology, philosophy and mythology, and by politics. She writes multiple point of view stories with individual plot lines that interweave at different points throughout the narrative. Kate never intends this - her characters are just bossy and rude and all have things to say.She lives in Australia, with her partner, two children and three very spoiled cats.
