About Katie Doyle

Katie lives in the wilds of Southern Indiana, surrounded by neighbors and other such dangerous creatures. When she’s not building blanket forts, she’s telling her kids to do their homework and attempting to keep the peace between the two. She’s good at wrangling the dog who loves the cat but terrible at wrangling the cat who hates the dog. In her spare time, she and her husband binge watch shows on Netflix or she’s writing things that don’t make sense until they do.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Kathleen! What a fantastic list of links – I'm so happy! I'm a fellow campaigner – I'm not in your groups, but I wanted the fun of getting to know more writers. It's so great to meet you! I had a wonderful time reading about you in your ABOUT tab – you sound like such an amazing person with your love of family – my family means everything to me too! And I LOVE the look of your blog! That header is fantastic!
