Hi, I’m Cait (like 🐈.) I’m an award-winning alphabet arranger who really loves cake. I have been sober for over 35 years now, and this was the cake I baked for it! (BTW, my WIP is Hot Wings and Sauciness, the meet-awkward-space-opera romance nobody asked for!) #WeeknightWriters

Oh oh oh! I did have a moment like this recently! When Talia and I were at Trent University talking about what it’s like to be disabled creatives in PublishingWorldLand and about disability representation in fiction. I felt supremely at ease! #SpoonieAuthChat

OK, so fun fact. My bread machine bakes my gluten-free flax bread in a cube shape. So I’ve started calling it Borg bread! Resistance to carbs is futile!

I swear, this is true. I got my first publishing contract almost ten years ago because the publishing rep liked my fashionista dalek cosplay at a local con. Then I accidentally blurted out a pitch using my autistic blurty trait.

I truly believe in celebrating nominations! While I am happy to have won two lit awards, I am also proud of the nominations where I haven’t won (Or haven’t yet won?).

Oh gosh, I’ve never made cookies that way. I love drop cookies. And this is my favourite lazy recipe! One bowl, make into little balls like clay, press with fork, then bake for 10-12 minutes. POOF!
I even added a teeny chocolate chip cookies
