Born on a tiny island stuck to the south of England, Kate Blair has worked as a museum curator, a clown and a cook on a ship on the Great Barrier Reef. She's worked at a theme park on the Jersey Shore and made furniture for the Sydney Olympic Village. Now a young adult author and a speculative fiction geek living in Toronto, Kate has two ridiculously young children and a lovely husband. Transferral is her first novel, available from DCB/Dancing Cat Books.
