Cate Masters

Cate Masters has made beautiful central Pennsylvania her home, but she'll always be a Jersey girl at heart. Most days, she can be found in her lair, concocting a magical brew of contemporary, historical, and fantasy/paranormal stories with her cat Chairman Maiow and dog Lily as company. Look for her at http://catemasters.blogspot.com, and in strange nooks and far-flung corners of the web. In 2010, the Pearl S. Buck Foundation awarded her short story first place. In 2005, Pennwriters awarded her second place in its annual Short Story contest. Her novels, novellas and short fiction have been published by Decadent Publishing, Lyrical Press, Book Strand, The Wild Rose Press, Eternal Press, Whiskey Creek Press, Wild Child Publishing/ Freya's Bower. Her flash and short stories are published with The Battered Suitcase, A Long Story Short, Dark Sky Magazine, Cezanne's Carrot, The Harrow, Flesh from Ashes, Quality Women's Fiction, Phase, and The Writer's online edition. Her freelance articles have appeared in The Sentinel, Carlisle.
