ABOUT
Welcome! I'm Katie.
In a book I wrote, I talked about my aversion to labels, but am I even a writer if I don't immediately contradict myself?
Here are some labels I dabble in:
writer,
teacher, author,
editor, reader, climber,
partner, daughter, auntie,
mindfulness meditation student teacher,
Buddhist-adjacent, book hoarder,
adventure-prone,
seeker
​
I'm currently immersed in a life of writing, teaching, freelance editing, and hosting retreats. I'm an editor at Elyssar Press, and I offer freelance editing services, too. I host free writing practice groups and book clubs in Redlands, and I'm currently working on my second memoir.
​
I host writing retreats, too! Please message me for more details.

Cheers!
