I'm Kat, and I don't know what I'm doing but by the NINE DIVINES am I doing it. I write queer fantasy with plenty of bi chaos and yearning.

About Me

Kat is a writer of queer fantasy who realised that dumping all their trauma onto characters was way cheaper and artsier than therapy. When not writing, they can be found drawing, taking naps, or enjoying cute little drinks such as blueberry latte or this cherry blossom frappe thing that their local bubble tea place makes. They enjoy sushi and guacamole on toast, probably not at the same time, but they’ll try anything once. They live in sunny (HA) western Ireland with their husband and black cat familiar, Jiji.

Hail the Rising Tides

Queer Romeo & Juliet meets elemental magic and rivalling cults when priestess Ione, the mortal vessel of the Moon Goddess, must save her people from the Sun God’s self-righteous army of pyromancers – a harrowing fate made far worse when she falls in love with one of the very pyromancers she is fated to kill.

Releasing on the 7th of April 2026!

All the Quiet Gods

Merle, the last priestess to the God of Clay, is more than capable of saving her god, her village, and the world before it slowly freezes over. And when pretty little witch Piper blows into Merle’s decrepit village, they may just be Merle’s salvation.

The God of Clay is hungry, and if sacrifices are what it’ll take to heal him, then sacrifices are what Merle will provide.

 

(no ETA sorry I'm rewriting it shh)
