Kathy Blackledge Pickel lives in Knoxville, TN with her family and several gargoyles. Her love for fantasy and science fiction began at a very young age and inspired her curiosity for creating. She is the owner of Oblique Creative, LLC. Kathy has a professional background in graphic design and several years of experience in implementing neurodevelopmental therapies. She is also one of many individuals within the neurodivergent community. Storytelling is a relatively new adventure for her. When she isn't writing, teaching, designing, or dreaming, she can often be found rescuing saplings, subjecting family and friends to her experimental cooking, and encouraging imaginings into existence.
