Folklore, myth, and a whole lot of magic.
Whether you are a writer or a reader,
you've come to the right place.
Kate Ristau is an author, folklorist, and the executive director of Willamette Writers. You can read her two middle grade series, Clockbreakers and Wylde Wings, or her young adult series, Shadow Girl. You can find her essays in The New York Times and The Washington Post. In her ideal world, magic and myth combine to create memorable stories with unforgettable characters. Until she finds that world, she’ll live in a house in Oregon, where they found a sword behind the water heater and fairies in the backyard. Meet her online at Kateristau.com.
