Australia
The winner of several poetry awards, Cate grew up in a rural area, where she penned her first unpublished story, The Lonely Tricycle. After her children were grown, she and her husband moved to the coast, where she began writing more frequently.
Cate says she ventured into writing after working in education, project management, health, and a variety of industries. It was the loss of a senior role during the 2008 GFC that she suggests was her most life changing moment where she reinvented her career and found her passion, writing poetry, blogs, and articles; eventually finding niche roles in compliance and technical writing.
Cate published her first novel, Seven Signs in 2018 then Bass Point Boys and Roy. She is currently working on a book about a child she helped through her teaching.
Cate says her poetry and stories are contrived from areas of social justice and those without a voice; of which she is passionate. She says she loves creating stories from experiences and watching human behaviour.
Cate can often be seen in her local coffee shop or at her writer’s group, chatting to other authors where she believes words, though not ideal for the writer’s critic - should be written - as life is - without perfection.
