I've been writing short stories and poems for about five years now, as well as some longer fiction and articles. Many of my stories have been published online and/or is anthologies, with several more forthcoming. Recently I've had stories in Penumbra, Quantum Fairy Tales, and Perihelion, and a poem at Star*lines. My website is cathydouglas.net.

Get to Know Cathy...

Birthdate? 11/18/1957

When did you start writing? About six years ago.

When and what and where did you first get published? The first poem I ever submitted got published, to my amazement! It was a nonsense poem called “A Memo Went Out,” which got published online by Verse Wisconsin.

What themes do you like to write about? I love imagining how our own world may have more going on than we think. I also like imagining ways that other worlds may be like ours.

What books and/or stories have most resonated with you as an author? Why? How do these stories and their characters find expression in your work? A lot of things I read when I was a kid had a big influence on the way I think, and still influence the way I write. I remember being blown away after reading the Earthsea trilogy, The Last Unicorn, Watership Down, and many others, so that in my head I was still living in those worlds for days. Now it’s the same when I write, only I’m stuck in worlds I make up myself.
