About the Author

Kathryn Williams

I hate writing bios almost more than I hate writing thank you notes (they are about as stale) , so I will try to make this interesting. I was born on a blustery spring day in [excised], a good year for Republicans and a bad year for zinfandels. Soon after, I penned my first literary masterpiece in a pink Trapper Keeper: a short story about a wild horse named Babbling Brook. Babbling Brook found herself in a pickle when the field she used for grazing froze over in a blizzard and then, still frozen, burned. While my early appreciation for plot and conflict was encouraging, it was also clear that I lacked a basic understanding of the laws of nature.

I am now the author of three young adult novels, THE DEBUTANTE, THE LOST SUMMER, and PIZZA, LOVE, AND OTHER STUFF THAT MADE ME FAMOUS, as well as an illustrated humor/advice book, ROOMIES: SHARING YOUR HOME WITH FRIENDS, STRANGERS AND TOTAL FREAKS. Under my pen name, Lucy Ruggles, I have authored or adapted a number of books, including the bestselling CAMP ROCK: THE JUNIOR NOVEL. When I am not spending the thousands of gazillions of dollars that I make writing books, I work as a freelance project editor for Sideshow Media. I am the co-founder and developmental editor for Sideshow's new YA imprint, Aerial Publishing. I also blog regularly for SparkLife and offer freelance writing, editing, proofreading, and photo research services.

I live somewhere between Nashville, Tennessee; New York City; Portland, Maine; and Richmond, Virginia. I am a strong believer in the healing power of butter, bacon, and Southern rock, and I never, ever wear white after Labor Day...or is it before Labor Day?
