Autorenporträt
Kathryn Craft is the award-winning author of two novels from Sourcebooks, The Art of Falling and The Far End of Happy. Her two-decade tenures as dancer/choreographer, dance critic for The Morning Call newspaper in Allentown, PA, and freelance developmental editor have merged to inform her perspective about story movement. Building on her bachelor's and master's degrees in education, it has been her great joy to share the craft of writing by mentoring novelists, most recently through her Your Novel Year program, and by speaking at dozens of venues where people thirst to write, from writing groups, conferences, and libraries to in-patient rehabs and grief support groups. She lives with her husband in Doylestown, PA.
