Hi! I’m Kate
Gilronan.


I’m a mother, writer, and prepper, though without 99%  of Ashley’s skills.

I do have a master’s degree in Emergency Management, though, which provided depth and background for my first published novel, PREPPER.

My other degrees include an MFA in Creative Writing and a BFA in Film and Television Production.

I do not use AI to write or edit any of my work, and my cover designer is a real human person who also does not use AI on my work.
