about me

***PLEASE BE AWARE***
I work on a read-swap basis. I have only one request, however. The asker goes first. Meaning, if I ask you to read my book, I will read yours first. If you ask me to read your book... well, you get the idea. Please understand these are my terms. Should you wish to accept them, then please continue to read my ramblings. If not, kindly bugger off.

PS, I didn't mean that last bit ^-^

Also, please DO NOT SPAM ME. I'm vegetarian. I don't like Spam.

Welcome to my profile! Nice to see you here, my name is Kate, and this is my little corner of Authonomy. Be careful of the pixies, they might nip you if they're feeling mischevious.

I am 21 years old (just a baby by this site's standards) and have lived in the UK all my life.

I write poetry in my spare time, and I've wanted to be an author since I was four years old, when I wrote my first 'book' called The Dancing Tree, about a, er, dancing tree.

I love anything to do with fantasy, including music, which is mostly of the celtic and/or new age genre. Loreena McKennitt and Blackmore's Night are two of my favourite artists in this genre.

I have a poetry book available for download on Amazon Kindle, called Secrets of the Faerie Realm, and you can follow me on facebook or blogspot by following the links below.

I've been working on The Albion Pages for three years now, and have recently picked up the Red Pen to edit it properly. I am also sneakily working on the sequel at the same time.

My dream is to see my book published, not for the fame or the fortune, just to see my name in print, to see a bookshelf in a shop with my book on it, to see someone on the bus reading a book that I wrote.

Although a little fame and fortune wouldn't go amiss...


A big thank you to MrKarats for designing the cover of The Albion Pages!
