Passionate about writing steamy romantic fiction embedded with responsible representation and diversity, Cathrine aims to help fill the world with books bursting with characters of all religions, races, sexual orientations, and identities.
As so many authors do, Cathrine began writing at a young age, her first book, naturally turned out to be about dragons and princesses. (The second was science fiction.) At age eight, she won a short story contest, and is still milking that glory-- as you can see.
She has dedicated her adult life to learning, practicing her craft, and uncovering her true voice through heartbreak, hardship, and human interaction.
Recognizing how writers and creatives have changed her life, Cathrine strives to utilize her growing talent to do the same-- hopefully leaving the world a better place than she found it.
One way she does this is through building an epic community of writers and authors who elevate one another. She also offers book doula services, helping indie authors through their debut's and offering marketing support.
When she isn't writing, she is homeschooling her daughter, daydreaming about getting back to NYC, decluttering a closet, catching up on the latest Marvel offering, or reading fan-fiction and drinking a matcha latte.
Her favourite trope is enemies to lovers and if you ever want to talk Star Trek, Star Wars, or Doctor Who, she's your girl.
Cathrine Swift is an author, designer, and book doula
. FAQ .
1. Why did you choose indie publishing?
Because I wanted full creative control over my projects in all aspects, and also I knew I could publish and produce books faster on my own than the traditional publishing houses could have.
One day I would like to pursue getting an agent and being picked by a trad pub house, but for now I am content being the boss behind all the (exhausting) scenes.
2. What is your biggest author dream?
To walk the red carpet at a movie adaptation premier for any (*cough* ALL *cough*) of my movies
3. What is your writing routine?
I don't have one. I will literally write anywhere, anytime, by any means. If I had to have the perfect lighting, smell, drink, etc available to me, there is no way I would get anything done.
