Cathy escapes from what she considers her mundane world by writing fiction, poetry, and essays. Although she writes all genres, she invariably (unknowingly!) veers toward the dark. Her late mother once asked "Can't you write anything happy?" (She can!)

Her writings have been published in many print and online publications. She has self-published several short story collections, books of poetry, and children’s picture books.

Her first novel, WOLVES DON’T KNOCK, was published in July 2018. MISTER WOLFE, the stand-alone/sequel, was published in 2020.

She's also written/published two books of grief poetry in memory of her son Matthew, who died unexpectedly at the age of 36 of a rare heart cancer: MY HEART IS BROKEN and BROKEN HEARTS CAN'T ALWAYS BE FIXED.

Cathy lives with her husband in West Porters Lake, Nova Scotia. They share their time between West Porters Lake and Halifax. Moses the Maltipoo recently joined their family.

Her amazing, gorgeous grandchildren provide joy and inspiration (though not on the "dark" side).
