Katleen A. Cooke
A native French speaker and writer, Katleen always had a genuine interest in the craft of storytelling, even though she chose graphic design as a profession.
A self-taught creative writer in both French and English, she managed to snag the first prize in the annual short story contest held by Montreal’s cultural weekly paper Voir, 2000 Edition.
After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, Katleen found herself with a lot of free time after having to bid her graphic design career goodbye. A time during which she discovered fanfiction. It inspired her to start writing in English, practicing for years before feeling ready to tell her own stories.
Now, many years later, she lives in the woods about an hour from Montreal. Her house is the size of a shoe, her dog is no bigger than a cat, and when it rains, she loses everything: cable, Internet, and cell reception.
It makes it easier to be productive… if the power is still on, that is.
The Salvation of Judas is Katleen’s debut novel, and she’s already working on the first book of the Redwater Creek series.

HOME ALONE
Sometime last year, I wrote the following short story for a contest with the prompt “Write a story about an abandoned home”. Since I just moved into my new home (and needed a well-needed break from “moving chores”), I thought I’d share it with you. I mean, I didn’t win the contest, so I can share, right? ‘Cause, I still like it!!! Not even mad I didn’t win. Much… 😉 Don’t hesitate to share your thoughts, I’d love to read you!

AU CAFÉ, UN VENDREDI
Ça fait très longtemps que je n’ai rien publié ici, par manque de temps mais aussi par manque de matériel “publiable”. En faisant du ménage pré-déménagement, j’ai trouvé un CD rempli d’histoires oubliées. Certaines sont complètes, certaines ne sont que des ébauches. Certaines, je les trouve potables, d’autres ne verront probablement jamais le jour. L’hiver est arrivé tôt cette année, c’est pourquoi j’avais envie de partager avec cette petite nouvelle plutôt ensoleillée. Quelque chose de simple et en français, j’espère que ça mettra un peu de soleil dans votre journée. Jolène et Michel doivent se rencontrer pour la première fois
