Out in the World!

Welcome to my very first blog! I'd like to thank anyone who has decided to take time out of their busy day to read on! The thought that someone outside of immediate family/ friends is reading my words right this very second fills me with a thrill I didn't even know existed until I decided to stick my wet nose out into the world and join the rest of the pack.

My name is Katerina, and my passion is telling stories. I figured out early in life that I was good at it but routine, a turbulent family life and an unhealthy fear of the unknown saw me quickly settled into a desk job and consigned to a life of mind-numbing drudgery at the whims of my employers. The idea that I was meant to do more with myself didn't come until a few years ago when, after a family crisis, I decided to put myself first and stop trying to please everyone else.

Now I'm a girl with a keyboard, a blinking cursor, and the world at my fingertips! It took guts to hit that yellow "Publish" button and take the step from Writer to Author, but I've done it three times now and I think I'm ready live in the world of criticisms, reviews, social media and blogs. I've never blogged in my life, but I've noticed that all the blogs (or at least a majority of them) about writing, self-publishing and marketing have been written by people who've "been there" and "done that".

I'm in the thick of it right now.

It's hard work. I have no idea how it's going to turn out. All I know is that that I need to do this, and then tell people about it so that a) other writers can find help in what I'm saying and b) so that my readers can see who they're really connecting with behind the words. 

I can't wait to share my stories with you and I'm so excited that you're here! 

Find me on Facebook, follow me on Twitter and subscribe to my mailing list to keep on top of what I'm doing and, let's have a great time together! 

Kat
