Stephanie Caye grew up in Michigan wanting to be a famed, reclusive novelist.

Then she moved to Texas, got a job in tech, started volunteering with shelter cats and dropped both “famed” and“reclusive” from her childhood dream.

She now lives in Montreal--happy to have four seasons again--still working in tech, still volunteering with cats, and still writing.

A former recipient of a University of Michigan Hopwood award for writing, she published her first urban fantasy novel, The Flaws of Gravity, in 2022 and followed it up with two more books in the Gravity's Daughter series.
