Ever since a college professor told S. Kaeth she’d have to eventually focus on just one thing, she’s been dead set on proving him wrong.

From charging through the wilderness, wrangling alligators and snapping turtles, trapping and counting moles, or supervising prairie burns for college credits to doing research and training frogs, lizards, and a lungfish, she treats life as an adventure. She traded hikes, natural history interpretation boating tours, and creature encounters for the slightly-less-exotic-but-no-less-fun mammal training about the same time she began to get serious about her writing craft.

S. Kaeth is an indie author and a co-founder of Indie Story Geek as well as a co-founder of Teacup Dragon. She’s a Coordinator at WriteHive, host of WriteHive’s Word Nerd Cafe podcast, and on the admin team for the Indie Ink Awards.

She weaves tales of powerful, flawed heroes, organic magic, and immersive worlds. Her dragonrider fantasy Windward features dragons at the heart of the powerful bond, and takes place on the same island as her Stone Age epic fantasy Between Starfalls, which kicks off the science fantasy series Children of the Nexus. Science fiction elements emerge more and more as the multi-POV epic saga unfolds. Beneath the Gods’ Tree is her low-fantasy adventure with a romantic subplot standalone book, which takes place on the same world, with one of the main characters of Children of the Nexus showing up as a side character.

You can find her teaching herself languages and lesser-known fiber crafts, hiking, or playing Capoeira when she’s not practicing the fine art of weaving a tale or cheering on other writers.
