Hello All! Two weeks ago we welcomed Erin Dydek as our Superhero Reviewer, and this week, we welcome a new columnist. Please give a warm welcome to Katie Fitzgerald! She will be taking on the role of our Romance Serial Columnist. This means that every edition will include a segment of a clean romance story written by Katie. We currently have one other story serializing in our Speculative Fiction section called "Stronghold" by Nathaniel D. Caldwell. I am so excited to welcome Katie Fitzgerald to the team. Find out more about her below and make sure you show her some love on social media!

Katie Fitzgerald writes short stories in a variety of genres, but mostly clean contemporary romance. Her work appears online at Spark Flash Fiction, Havok Publishing, and Micromance Magazine, as well as in various print anthologies and ebooks on Kindle Unlimited. She is a 2024 Sparkie Award recipient for Best Romantic Suspense and a nominee for the Pushcart Prize and the Cupid Prize. A former librarian married to a librarian, Katie is a voracious reader and listener of audiobooks, and the careful curator of a large home library of children’s literature. She loves bookish tee shirts, Flannery O’Connor, song lyric jokes, and Little Free Libraries. Katie grew up in a small town in New York’s Hudson Valley, but now lives in Maryland with her husband and five kids.
