About KC

Writer, dog lover, software geek, champion web surfer

I grew up in the mid-western USA and Hawaii, and earned a B.A. in Russian from Florida State University (Go Noles!). I currently live in Oregon.

In 2005, I attended the Viable Paradise workshop in beautiful Martha's Vineyard. I've also attended a workshop by the late, great David Farland (aka Dave Wolverton).

I've been a Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) member since 2015.

I also write the occasional (one so far!) contemporary romance under the pen name Alane Hudson.

Black Lives Matter

As a proud mixed-race American, I strongly believe that Black lives DO matter.

The rampant unequal, often violent or deadly treatment in our justice/legal system for people of color crushes my soul. I've begun including a tribute character in my books, starting with Aria of the Awakened, naming a minor character in memory of a real-life, innocent, law-abiding person of color shot dead by police. As a writer of a certain age, there's not much I feel qualified to do personally to fix the broken societal problems, aside from sharing my voice and perspective, and that's what I do.
