Hi there! I'm Kate.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m Kate McGinty (formerly known online as Caryn Caldwell). I live in the deserts of the southwestern U.S. with my husband, daughter, two bunnies, two cats, and a lot of bookshelves. When I’m not reading, online, or out hiking with my family, I write young adult novels with a bit of magic and a lot of fun woven in.
My books
Thank you for your interest in my books! I write female-centered young adult tales filled with strength, humor, and adventure — the kind I’ve always loved to read. Sometimes there’s romance, and sometimes there’s magic, but every word is written with love and intention.
Because my books aren’t published (yet!), I can’t disclose much more than that, but I will say that I have several projects in different stages of completion, and I can’t wait for you to finally be able to read them! Keep up with my book news by joining my newsletter (below) or following me on social media.
