When she was three years old, Kathleen Buckley’s father bought a set of the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Big books! With all kinds of words (and pictures) in them! By the age of twelve, she knew she wanted to write fiction (she also wanted to be a journalist, a spy and a spaceperson—but NASA wasn’t accepting female spacepersons then. She never became a journalist because she hates asking pushy questions, nor a spy, because she’s not good with foreign languages, has bad eyes and is not athletic. In semi-retirement, she began to write full-time, at least when not pursuing her other hobbies: reading, cats, cooking, and costume.

“If trust and lack of experience led to errors of judgement, the only way to be safe must be to distrust everyone.”
Kathleen Buckley, A Masked Earl

“Odd how a single, impulsive action could lead to a string of consequences.”
Kathleen Buckley, A Masked Earl

“Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.”
