The irony of sharing this poem virtually isn't lost on me! For more of my writing, visit my Substack: substack.com/@kathrynorwiga… #poetry #poetrycommunity #naturepoetry

I don't know if I can accurately describe in words how stunning The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas is! If you have not picked this book up, do so! It is smart, it has so much heart, and it is brilliantly done. I've been thinking about it since I finished it! #YABooks #BookReview

Excited to dive into this fantasy romance YA series by Adalyn Grace as the covers are gorgeous and having a character as Death is always so intriguing to me! #yafantasybooks #yaromancebooks #booklover

The Selected Poems of Wendell Berry were a great sampling of his work through the years. His nature pieces reminded me of Robert Frost, but change out the New Hampshire setting for Kentucky! #poetrybooks #wendellberry #naturepoetry

A bookshop had a sale and I got my next reads! Special editions with the sprayed edges are my new weakness (am not mad about this!) A Song to Drown Rivers by Ann Liang and Bloodguard by Cecy Robson! Excited to dive into these epics! #romantasyreads #fantasybooks #bookishlove

I can't get enough of the stenciled/sprayed edges and soooooo my book collection is starting to look like this 👀👀👀 #bookstack #saturdaystack #sprayededges #bookishlove

If you’re looking for an Italian setting in a book with coming-of-age YA Rom-Com fun, Jenna Evans Welch’s Love & Gelato was a quick & fun read! #readingcommunity #yaromancebooks #summerreading

Writing a book is very similar to reading a book. You want to get to the end so badly b/c it’s so exciting, & then once you get to the ending, you want the whole process to start over🤷🏻‍♀️& even feel a little sad the adventure is over📖 #amwriting #amquerying

PIRATE QUEEN OF THE RED FLAG FLEET made the 2025 Page Awards Top 10 Finalists in the Action/Adventure Category!!! I am so HAPPY! Thank you PAGE Awards for this huge honor!!!

One of my all time favorite series! Shiver, Linger and Forever by Maggie Stiefvater Updates is a great YA fantasy (romance) series that is a perfect autumn read! I still to this day search for a golden wood 🌲 #readingcommunity #yafantasybooks #yaromancebooks

If anyone is ever looking for a Middle Grade Viking epic adventure story, look no further than Nancy Farmer's very fun novel The Sea of Trolls! It's got strong themes of friendship and really cool magical elements! #middlegradebooks #BookRecommendations

So thrilled to see PIRATE QUEEN OF THE RED FLAG FLEET on The ISA Fall 2025 Top Reads List!! Congrats to my fellow selected honorees! networkisa.org/screenwriting_…

King of Envy by Ana Huang The concept of this series drew me in: as each of the MMCs represent/embody one of the seven deadly sins - and how fun a concept this would have been to play with as an author (and is as a reader too!). #romancebooks #kingofsinseries #fallreading

The Serpent & the Wings of Night, The Ashes & the Star-Cursed King by Carissa Broadbent ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I loved that this was the deadly games of Hunger Games, make them vampires, age them up to 20s (to 100s of years old), and add secrets that are just as deadly as falling in love.

Query trenches tip: Remember that every “no” means your book is out there, being read. That’s brave.

Hey everyone! I’m directing this WEREWOLF horror short for Keeshan Giles (Grey’s Anatomy, New Girl, The Office) called HUNTERS! It’s on Kickstarter right now! Pledge and share! Please and thank you! kickstarter.com/projects/16824…

Doubling down on this as I had the honor of beta reading it and it is soooooooooooo gooooddddd! Can’t wait for it to be on my shelf one day in the near future ❤️

"AI is here to stay," Okay? I still don't want any part of it. Idk why that's so hard to understand.

I am screaming! So so so happy to have placed as a SILVER WINNER in the 2025 PAGE Awards!! PIRATE QUEEN OF THE RED FLAG FLEET is literally my favorite script that I’ve written! Thank you and congratulations to my fellow winners! pageawards.com/winners/2025/p…
