Kate Beattie is an adult contemporary fiction author, a primary school educator and an observer of the world. Her characters are authentic and brave, and she weaves her passion for sustainability, travel and parenting into her stories. Writing is a creative outlet that allows her to explore and reflect upon life’s shareable moments, and gives her an identity beyond ‘Mum’ and ‘Mrs Beattie’.
I’m Shay Alexander, and I write fantasy for those who crave lush worlds, rich magic, and heroines who don’t waste the whole book denying their power. Mythology, history, and the ethereal weave through my stories, creating adventures where the impossible is just another challenge to conquer.
I’m just beginning—come follow along, and I hope you enjoy the books.
