Autorenporträt
>An English major at Stratford Junior College in Virginia, she transferred to the University of Georgia to study Journalism. More recently she attended the Iowa School of Writing's summer workshop where she studied fiction and Faulkner. It was there she discovered that she wasn't a literary writer at all. Nope, instead, she created a new genre: Conversational Writing. In other words, there's no flowery language, no hidden meaning, no esoteric philosophy. She writes like she talks. Kathy's first marriage ended after 10 years and produced two children. She later married Lewis Grizzard, a Southern humorist, who encouraged Kathy to resurrect her love of writing. Sadly, Lewis suffered recurring bouts of the booze flu, which brought an end to their connubial state. They accepted that they fought better as friends than spouses. After that rather public divorce, the ex-Mrs. Grizzard felt compelled to leave home and introduce her children to another part of the country. Yellowstone Park seduced her, and she married a kind man who was manager of a guest ranch near Livingston, Montana. While living in the West, Kathy received a call from Lewis and an editor at Peachtree Publishers. They asked her to write a book about life in the South married to a good ole' boys like Lewis. It was entitled How to Tame a Wild Bore which was followed by From Debutante to Doublewide. The latter is a spine-tingling account of a southern belle plucked from the Land o' Cotton and planted in a cowboy town with more bars than churches. She returned to the South in 1995, alone, answering the call of sweet-smelling grits trees that came to her in dreams. Alas, the same feeling was not shared by her Montana man, so yet another catch-and-release episode transpired, and it had nothing to do with fish. In the summers, Kathy, her husband of twenty-three years and Tinkerbell (an aging teacup Pomeranian that bites) sneak off to the mountains of North Carolina. It is there she indulges her passion for flowers. Raine's story is Kathy's first fiction, and she is currently finishing the screenplay of a film by the same name.
