About the author
Gini Koch
85 books916 followersGini Koch started writing in the American Southwest as something to do in between staring at pictures of good-looking leading men, but now sweats out the words, both literally and figuratively, in Hotlanta and dreams of dry heat.
She’s best known for her award-winning Alien/Katherine “Kitty” Katt series formerly from DAW Books and now with Ginger Blue Publishing, which started with Touched by an Alien and has seventeen books and one collection out currently, with eighteen through twenty-two on the way.
Gini’s made the most of multiple personality disorder by writing under a variety of other pen names as well, including G.J. Koch (the Alexander Outland series), Anita Ensal (The Belters Series, A Cup of Joe), Jemma Chase (The Disciple and Other Stories of the Paranormal), A.E. Stanton (the New West Series and the Legend of Belladonna series), and J.C. Koch, all with stories featured in excellent anthologies, available now and upcoming. She’s expanded the fun by writing mysteries with co-writer Bebe Bayliss (the Fall’s Girl Mysteries and the Santa Paloma Mysteries).
No matter what length – from science fiction, fantasy, paranormal, space opera, urban fantasy, horror, mystery, thriller, dystopian, Westerns, romantic suspense, and more – if it’s genre, she writes it.
She’s an avid follower of pop culture, comics, and anything and everything animated. She’s still inspired mostly by good-looking leading men (particularly her husband) and driven to keep her Canine Death Squad and Killer Kitties in kibble and treats.

The author's short stories in her Kiity Katt series are awesome in their banter, hilariousness and general adding to the background of her Kitty Katt universe. I loved these tales and the interviews had me snorting in laughter. So much fun! I must not miss the newest books in this series!

Ok, fine. I’ll reread the series again.
Loved it. Missed the aliens so much. Can’t wait for the new book

Fun collection! I’ve read many of these before but I love having them all together along with many new additions.

Collection of short stories. The stories depend too much on having read the series they are a part of. They cannot stand alone.
