Kate writes things. She writes primarily contemporary romance and romantic suspense. Sometimes she gets adventurous and tackles historical fiction. She’s kind of afraid of werewolves.
Kate is a big nerd with an English lit degree who reads a lot and sometimes gets long-winded about writing, genre, and fiction tropes. Or she’s just long-winded generally.
By day, Kate is a nonfiction editor. Also, she is crafty (mostly knitting and sewing, but she also wields power tools), she plays the violin, and she dabbles in various other pursuits. She’s maybe a tiny bit obsessed with baseball. She lives in Brooklyn, NY, with a presumptuous cat.You can email her at kate (at) katemcmurray.com.
