About this author

Katherine Owen has written three novels, Seeing Julia, Not To Us, and When I See You. Owen is also featured in the anthology, Indie Chicks 25 Women Writers 25 Stories, which features an excerpt of Seeing Julia. Owen's writing delves into the complexities of relationships, often from both love and loss perspectives, because, as an author, she enjoys the unpredictability and uniqueness she finds there. Owen's writing is not for the faint of heart, it’ll take readers on a proverbial emotional roller coaster ride, before reaching resolution, and the endings are somewhat surprising. Owen's writing tends to be dark, moody, and sometimes funny. It can be a bit lyrical or even literary. It’s often edgy, so be forewarned. Her stories are comprised...more

“There are all kinds of ways for a relationship to be tested, even broken, some, irrevocably; it’s the endings we’re unprepared for.”

“Here’s what I know: death abducts the dying, but grief steals from those left behind.”
Katherine Owen, Seeing Julia

“I’ve told too many lies. I hold too many secrets. Who can I really trust? Who can trust me when I don’t even trust myself?”

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
Marilyn Monroe

“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
Marilyn Monroe

“There are all kinds of ways for a relationship to be tested, even broken, some, irrevocably; it’s the endings we’re unprepared for.”
Katherine Owen, Not To Us

“Part of the problem with the word 'disabilities' is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. But what of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in constructive ways? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.”

Thank you so much for the kind note and for checking out my novels. Yes, my books have done well, for the most part. Thanks for considering my novels for your reading pleasure. I'm grateful for every reader I have! It appears with my fan base that if you read one and love it; you'll enjoy all three. As it stands, I am working on novel #4 which I hope to release by the end of the year. Best, Katherine
