As legend has it, Katee Stein was born with a book in her hand. Although never officially confirmed, reports suggest her earliest years were spent haunting the local library.  It is unclear what profound thoughts led Katee to write her first book, The Nameless Stegosaurus, but her love of storytelling took root from that moment on.

Once grown, Katee traveled, met the love of her life, had two amazing children, and started working in special education. And through it all words never stopped swirling, begging to be released. Finally, when the ache in her chest became too much,  she started to write the stories that had lived so long in her head. 

So it was, Katee has learned the value of the long way around. The uncharted course that spun a lifetime of experience into the foundation to create worlds and explore possibilities.

Of course, if you were to meet her, she’s of an ordinary sort who loves coffee and slow mornings; chickens and sunrises; and most of all, her people.

If you have a story in you, it hurts not to get it out. —Katee Stein
