Hi, I’m Katelyn!

  • I love reading, and I will read almost any genre, except horror and romance (combined shudder and gag).

  • I dislike most classics, though. Why are they considered classics when they’re so difficult to read??

  • Other hobbies: crocheting, cooking, gardening, watching movies/series, yoga, spin class, jigsaw puzzles.

  • I’ve been writing in one form or another ever since I could hold a pencil. Also, fountain pens are the only appropriate way to journal.

  • All forms of play left my childish abilities when I discovered how to read.

  • My favourite season is fall — all the pumpkin spice!

  • I’m Canadian (you might’ve guessed by my British-English spellings, eh?).

  • I’ve been married for 10+ years and it’s still the best decision I’ve made in my life.

  • I can’t have children for some vague, unknown reason attributed to PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome).

  • One of my favourite things to do is to discuss theology—what if God didn’t create literal hell?? What if he created the universe through evolution?? Gasp!

  • I have a congenital mild-to-moderate hearing loss that results in needing to wear hearing aids.

  • I received my Master of Divinity in Dec. 2023 and am a pastor at my local church.

  • I’m also a part-time physiotherapist working in acute care.

  • My husband and I own the most adorable shihpoo.

  • Our families combined, we have seventeen nieces and nephews.

  • I HATE velvet. Hate, hate, hate.

  • I love Jesus. Love, love, love. Love Bible studies, love talking about Jesus and how he changes lives, and love learning about him and from him. Love, love.
