My Canvas Awaits…

“Writing is the painting of the voice.” – Voltaire

Few statements ring truer for me. Many things greet me each morning: my family, the sunshine, and those first few sips of coffee. But another constant is the blank page waiting patiently, the canvas for my voice.

With my second manuscript now submitted and moving toward publication, I feel that familiar restlessness to dive back into research and writing. I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be a contributing writer for Holley Snaith’s Medium publication, History in Progress, where I’ll continue exploring the stories of remarkable people, places, and eras.

And yes, another book (or two) is already taking shape. Stay tuned!

  1. Hi, Katy,
    Enjoyed sharing booths across the way during the Knoxville Book Festival.
    My wife and I recently ran across the folks behind the upcoming Women’s Suffrage Museum in Knoxville, which is targeting a 2028 opening.
    The conversation immediately made me think there may be an opportunity for a strong “cornerstone” or signature book tied to the museum opening — something the museum bookstore could really showcase as a marquee local title.
    I mentioned your name since you are Knoxville-based and already writing in that historical space. Might be an interesting partnership opportunity for you and your publisher to explore over the next couple of years.
    Just wanted to pass the thought along.

    1. Hi, Dave! It was great meeting you a few weeks ago. Thank you so much for passing along this information and mentioning my book to the Women’s Suffrage Museum! I will contact them in the coming weeks. I can’t wait for their grand opening!
      Best,
