Katie Magnusson lives with her husband and son in Milwaukee, WI, where she works in a bookstore and struggles not to spend half her paycheck at her workplace. Many years ago, she read The Complete Sherlock Holmes and Neuromancer in quick succession, which inspired her to start writing about a man who tries to be Sherlock Holmes in a cybernetic future. These stories became the basis for her series, The Adventures of Watts and Sherlock. More stories followed, with more to come.
