She hosts the Chinese Connection, a spoken word program on community radio, teaches Kung Fu, and plays in a bluegrass/folk band. She recently had a poem published in spring. One of her favourite parts of being a mom is reading with her kids.

The illustrations were done by her daughter, Kas Rea, a Saskatchewan artist. Kathie is working on a novel entitled, Shedding Skin. She is grateful for the supports from the Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild mentorship program and Sage Hill writers’ retreats. She has a Master of Arts and worked as a community developer in Bolivia, Canadian not-for-profits and public health.
