Hello and welcome! If we haven’t met before, let me use this time to tell you a little about myself.

I truly love all things cats, but that’s not really “new information.” Coming in at a close second is story telling and world building. There is nothing I find more entertaining than becoming swept up in another world. Life can get overwhelming at times and we can all use an escape. That’s what I hope to do with my writing.

You’re probably wondering, But what are you doing when you aren’t writing? It’s true, I don’t sit behind my desk all the time. A few years ago, my husband of nearly 25 years finally convinced me to give camping a try and to my incredible surprise, I found that I actually really love it! We have a little tow-behind camper, which is extremely versatile, that we’ve been known to tow up an entire(…ly horrible and dangerous) mountain in the Tetons. Every trip is an adventure, and I look forward to each and every one of them. There’s just something about the cool, crisp morning air while you sip your coffee and enjoy spectacular views.

I’m also a mom of 2 and although they’re grown, we all know that job is never done. My girls are my life, and I am so very proud of the ladies they’ve become. They inspire me every day to be a better mom and human.

Well, I think that about sums me up! Thank you for stopping by, and if you’ve wandered into the Empyrean world and/or anticipate wandering into any of my upcoming worlds, I hope you find them to be a worthwhile escape.

Be well, friends and as always, be kind. xoxo MK
