Kathryn R. Blake has been writing romances with paranormal twists for nearly twenty years. She has been intrigued by wizards and curses ever since she was a child and read The Once and Future King, by T.H. White. She fell in love with ghost in the Ghost and Mrs. Muir, and she’s always held a very special place in her heart for lovelorn vampires.

Besides writing, Kathryn enjoys reading novels and acting in her local community and regional theaters. One of her favorite roles is Queen Eleanor in The Lion in Winter. Kathryn is a passionate lover of animals, and claims as hers: three four-legged beasties, a winged creature who would rather talk to his own reflection than her, and a tank of small, finned entities that say little and eat much.

In addition, Kathryn has been a member of RWA since the early 1980s and has joined several local and special interest chapters such as OVRWA, COFW, MARA, FF&P, ESPAN and HHRW, all of which have been instrumental in helping Kathryn’s career. The most influential group on her writing is the select critique group she belongs to that consists of a few, very close friends who aren’t afraid to voice their true opinions.
