Hi! I’m Katie.
I write fiction and essays about friendship and love, loss and change, mixed-race identity and cross-cultural issues, the future and the past, everyday magic, and how we find courage. Every month I share a new story with readers through my story subscription program.
I love finding ways to build community with storytelling. I’m so glad you’re here!

What is a story subscription program?
-
Every month, I write and publish an original short story, delivered to members' email inboxes.
Story Subscribers receive an original short story.
Reference Desk Access subscribers receive a short story and craft notes related to the story.
Bookshelf Access offers subscribers the story of the month, craft notes, and access to my library of e-books.
Subscribers immediately gain access to the story, craft notes, or e-books available to their tier of choice via a Table of Contents, with new work delivered on the last Friday of the month.
The program is hosted on Patreon to securely process payments.

Readers gain access to new work as it is written and an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes process. Together we are paving a new path of publication that values innovation and community.

After I published my first book, I knew I wanted to build a deeper relationship with my readers and include them in my process. I had a lot of experience working on innovative literary projects and heard of this new platform called Patreon. As a membership platform, Patreon empowers creators to share their work on their own terms. I knew it would be an ideal place to share my stories and connect with my readers.
