My name is Katherine Kobito, but my friends and family all me Kat/Kathy. I’m twenty-six years old and consider myself a writer. Thanks to my wonderful upbringing, and traveling around the world as a child, I’ve been exposed to a lot of culture. It has instilled in me the values of discipline, self-confidence, and determination. Ever since I was young, I’ve always loved reading, and history.

Rowling and Philippa Gregory. I am a member of the Georgia Writers Association, Georgia Highlands College (GHC) Creative Writing Club, International Association of Professional Writers & Editors, and attending the Georgia Highlands College Creative Writing Conference, which I attended in March of this year, and will continue to thereafter.
