Kat Korpi

Writing for adults and older teens across multiple genres, there are three things that act as a true north for Kat as she writes:

1. Sapphics who don't need to be saved
but probably need to go to therapy.
2. Unhinged moments that make her look in the mirror and say, "what the hell is wrong with me?"
3. The beating heart of her stories that make her readers go
"oh, I'm not alone in that" in both heart-warming and bone-chilling ways.

Before she made her way into writing novels, Kat spent a decade working on movies and television in everything from Mission Impossible to talk shows to a summer producing MTV's Are You The One? (she's still salty that she worked on the only AYTO season that didn't fly her to an island to film). Her love of the cinematic impacts the way she tells stories, and she's always striving to make heartbreak feel good (and make AMC Theater's Nicole Kidman proud).

Current Project
(Going on submission this fall)

OTHER PEOPLES LIVES is a sapphic Romantic Thriller that's Riley Sager's Lock Every Door meets a lesbian John Tucker Must Die.

Out of options, a nomadic pet sitter is forced to accept a job in the city she barely escaped. But when she discovers she has a surprising connection to the owners, she has to enlist the help of the woman who lives next door to figure out why she was hired and ensure her life doesn’t end before her pet sit does.
