Well, I'm studying for a Physics Degree in Warwick, England. I have three main stories at the moment: The Dragon Isles, Estara, and Willow. Some of my characters are also illustrated on my Art Gallery in Elfwood. A short description of each story is below.

If you leave a comment I only reply to those who leave an email address or those who are elfwood members.

The Dragon Isles: A young woman, Tehal (pronounced tail), is pursued by the powerful people of the world, and gets caught up in the war between the dragons. It's set on the planet of Lamorkland, on the land mass known as Elnoon. Okay, there's a lot more to it than that, but that's the basis. It's going to be fairly long. Updated so far to Chapter 14

 Willow: A story set in the Realm of the Fae. With a new threat on the horizon, there can only be one who can restore order to the realm of the fae, an assassin. It's not got that far yet, it's getting there though and will be updated soon. So happy with Mod's choice on Part 1! Updated August 09, Part 3.

Estara:  Set on the same world as 'The Dragon Isles', but thousands of years before and on a seperate continent, Estara. Follows the Third War of the dragons where the Silver Dragons seek domination over the other colours. Follows a few main characters throughout but does switch frequently. So far it's reached Chapter 3

 The Dog Guardian:  The Guardians, based deep in the hills of the Lake DIstrict, are threatened by the Shadow Sect. This story follows the newest member of the Guardians, the Dog Guardian, as they all struggle to survive against the Shadow Sect. This might take a while, as it's sort of a secondary project, but it is definetly going somewhere.

Date Name Comment   10 Dec 2005 Larry N. Morris Loading... welcome to Elfwood! Get alot of feed-back on your work from other writers. Just visit others and leave helpful comments on their work. Most of them will return the visit. Good cess and good writing. Katherine Bates replies: "Thanks for the advice" 10 Dec 2005 Aletheia Preston Loading... Hiya! * First comment dance I'm a new writer too!! although I haven't put anything up yet...You're a really good writer!! Katherine Bates replies: "Thanks for your comment, I'll have to look at your stuff when you puplish, its always nice to see other peoples work." 11 Dec 2005 Vicki Leady Loading... You have some very interesting ideas here. Your style needs a bit of polish though. For instance, repetition=bad. There's a lot of different ways to say the same thing and it makes your work sound a lot smoother instead of using the same words you already have. You also have a few punctuation issues but nothing a little self proof reading wouldn't cure. Try reading it out loud and see if it would be something you would *say*. Anyway, that's my bit of advice. Keep it up, I eagerly await the next chapter of "The Last of the Gold." ^_^ 12 Dec 2005 Jacqueline 'Jac' Tanner Loading... Hey there and welcome to the woods. I read both of your lovely stories and left critiques on the Last of the Gold. I enjoyed the story and i hope i didn's sound harsh (about the third of fourth time i said that... but i am meaning to help lol) You have brillaint unique ideas at your disposal! I await more work from you soon! 1 Jan 2006 Linda M. Billson Loading... Heya! Just checking in to see if you had any new stuff....*waiting, waiting, impatiently waiting...* 26 Oct 2007 Marika Viklund Loading... Thank you for the Tag! ^^ 24 Nov 2007 Kiri eaton Loading... great writing, i hope mine is a good to read, but it's probably not, I'll have to wait until it gets published on the site to find out. Well, I hope you continue with your stories, I've only read willow so far, but it's great! Katherine Bates replies: "Thanks so much for the tag, I'll make a note to read yours as soon as you publish it." 11 Dec 2007 Courtney ´ Shortney´ Rodgers Loading... Wow, what can I say. I've only read one of your stories but I love your writing style. Keep it up! Courtney
