Author Katherine Lowry Logan couples her psychology degree with lots of hands-on research when creating new settings and characters for her blockbuster Celtic Brooch series. These cross-genre stories have elements of time travel, sci-fi, fantasy adventure, mystery, suspense, historical, and romance and focus on events in American history. Her favorite research adventures include: • attending the Battle of Cedar Creek reenactment and visiting Civil War sites in Richmond, Virginia (Sapphire Brooch), • riding in a B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, and visiting Bletchley Park and the beaches at Normandy (Emerald Brooch), • research in Paris, France, and Florence, Italy, with an art lesson in Florence (Pearl Brooch), • a tour of New York’s Yankee Stadium and several hours with their historian (Diamond Brooch), • wine tours in Napa (The Last MacKlenna), • and following the Oregon Trail for the first book in the series (Ruby Brooch).Katherine is the mother of two daughters and grandmother of five—Charlotte, Lincoln, James Cullen, Henry, and Meredith. She is also a marathoner and lives in Lexington, Kentucky, with her fluffy Goldendoodle, Maddie the Marauder.Website: www.KatherineLLogan.com Facebook: Katherine Lowry Logan, authorTwitter: @KathyLLoganRead more about this authorRead less about this author
