edit data

Natalie Horseman believes stories can make us laugh, wonder, feel understood, and sometimes keep us up long past bedtime. An award-winning author and nurse, she writes across genres, from imaginative children’s books to atmospheric Southern fiction.

She is the author of the Goat on the Go series, inspired by her real goat Scout, along with The Bumpy Pumpkin, In the Wide, Wild World, and Blackwater Parish.

When she isn’t writing, Natalie brings more than two decades of healthcare experience and a love of human connection into every story she creates. No matter the genre, her work is tied together by heart, imagination, and the belief that every story has the power to leave something behind.
