Kat Hillis (she/he) is the author of offbeat queer science fiction, fantasy, and cozy mystery that makes readers ask, “What the heck did I just read?”

She earned her BA in English Literature from the University of Alabama in Huntsville. She still lives in Alabama, where she enjoys the two weeks of tolerable weather a year.

When she’s not writing, she’s probably thinking about it or talking about it—she has been described as a jock whose sport is writing. If she’s procrastinating, she can be found drawing, reading, or binge-watching TV shows. A lifelong narrative enthusiast, she enjoys all types of gaming (tabletop RPGs, video games, board games). Her hobbies include getting emotional when she thinks too much about quantum physics, and crafting handmade soap.
