A HOLT Medallion Award of Merit recipient in Romantic Suspense, storycatcher Yvonne Kohano enjoys channeling her complex characters in compelling stories to delight readers and keep them up late at night. She writes contemporary romantic suspense, psychological thrillers, and nonfiction guides on writing and creativity. Teaching and consulting are in her DNA. She loves sharing what she's learned with other writers as a creativity coach and indie publishing mentor through articles, virtual and face-to-face workshops, and 1:1 support. In addition to running an indie press, she loves to cook (dedicated foodie), garden (plantaholic), travel (anywhere), and read and learn (anything). Yvonne, Dear Hubby and their dogs love life in Portland, Oregon, even (especially) when it rains!
