Writers and aspiring writers are invited to join our Zoom meeting to learn about the revision process from Kat Higgs-Coulthard, author of Junkyard Dogs.

Writers and aspiring writers are invited to join tonight's Zoom meeting to learn about the revision process from author Kat Higgs-Coulthard who will provide examples from her own novel as it went through the publication process. We'll learn about working with an editor and have time for questions and discussion.


Kat Higgs-Coulthard is the author of Junkyard Dogs, described by Kirkus as "a mean streets-style tale, raw in language and feeling alike...visceral." Her work has appeared in Cleaver, Chicken Soup for the Soul, and Women on Writing. She is an associate professor of education at Saint Mary's College and lives in Niles, Michigan.
