Kate Schumacher

When Kate isn’t writing, she is reading her way through an ever-growing TBR pile. Kate has wanted to be an author since she was a child, when she used to write stories about her friends and ‘publish’ them with the help of a stapler. Kate has too many university degrees. She started a Law degree, then changed her mind and ended up completing a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing and Journalism, and an Honours degree in Screenwriting. Realising she couldn't live on two-minute noodles forever, she went back to uni and got a job. Kate's writing is influenced by history, sociology, philosophy and mythology, and by politics. Even though she never intends it to happen, her books end up being very political and complex, which people either love or hate. She writes multiple point of view stories with individual plot lines that interweave at different points throughout the narrative. Kate never intends this either - her characters are just bossy and rude and all have things to say. She always throws a healthy dose of romance into the mix to keep these people happy.
