Cathrine Swift writes multi genre fiction that pulses with cinematic emotion. Sometimes steamy, but always richly infused with inclusive romance, responsible representation, and diversity, her books speak on found family, identity, empowerment, and healing. Passionate about crafting stories that reflect relationships and the beautiful, resilient complexity of the human heart, she fills her pages with characters of all religions, races, sexual orientations, and identities. Because love, in all its forms, deserves to be seen.
​
Like many writers, she fell in love with storytelling young—her first book (naturally) featured dragons and princesses, and at age eight, she won a short story contest, a victory she’s clearly still milking. Since then, she’s dedicated her adult life to honing her craft, finding her voice through hope, heartbreak, healing, and human connection. Whether she’s writing about whirlwind romances, soul-searching journeys, or the magic of finding home within oneself, her stories are always infused with depth, warmth, and the messy, beautiful process of growth.
​
Beyond her own writing, Cathrine is a lifestyle and wedding photographer, and a co-host of The Energy Within podcast with her best friend of over twenty years. She also helps indie authors navigate the highs and lows of their unique publishing journeys in her role as a book doula. Currently, she is working to build an incredible community of writers who uplift and support one another through the Abundant Artists brand that she created. Cathrine firmly believes that when creatives rise together, the whole industry (and the world) changes for the better.
​
When she's not lost in her fictional worlds, she’s homeschooling her daughter, daydreaming about NYC, or indulging in her love of fandoms (Marvel, Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, and more). She’ll never say no to a matcha latte, her favourite trope is enemies to lovers, and her heart beats swiftly—for stories, for the people and words that make life magic, and for love itself.

. FAQ .
1. Why did you choose indie publishing?
​
Because I wanted full creative control over my projects in all aspects, and also I knew I could publish and produce books faster on my own than the traditional publishing houses could have.
One day I would like to pursue getting an agent and being picked by a trad pub house, but for now I am content being the boss behind all the (exhausting) scenes.
​
2. What is your biggest author dream?
​
To walk the red carpet at a movie adaptation premier for any (*cough* ALL *cough*) of my books
​
3. What is your writing routine?
​
I don't have one. I will literally write anywhere, anytime, by any means. If I had to have the perfect lighting, smell, drink, etc available to me, there is no way I would get anything done.
