Author has written 64 stories for Love, Life, Fantasy, Friendship, Young Adult, General, and Haiku.

My name is Katy and I'm 22 years old.

I love writing poems, short stories, and books. I've been writing poetry since I was in fifth grade and stories since ninth grade. I've now graduated college with a Bachelor's Degree in English/American Studies.

Many of my poems are not fiction and are based on things that have happened to me, or feelings that I've had.
