Katie Welch writes fiction and teaches music in Kamloops BC, on the traditional, unceded territory of the Secwepemc people. Her short stories have been published in EVENT Magazine, Prairie Fire, The Antigonish Review, The Temz Review, The Quarantine Review and elsewhere. She was first runner-up in UBCO’s 2019 Short Story Contest, and her story Poisoned Apple was chosen as Pick-of-the-Week by Longform Fiction. Her debut novel MAD HONEY is coming in spring 2022 from Wolsak and Wynn.

Katie holds a BA in English Literature from the University of Toronto (1991). Her daughters, Olivia and Heather Saya, share her passion for nature and outdoor recreation. Katie loves to cycle, hike and cross country ski with her husband, Will Stinson, and they are in the process of creating a remote home on Cortes Island, in Desolation Sound.

Ken primarily works in acrylics and has developed a new paint formula using a rare earth mineral called strontium aluminate. After several years of experimenting with this material, he now manufactures his own paint and possesses the artistic license to use it freely. Strontium Aluminate collects and stores light, while at the same time releasing light from within the paint. When viewed in the dark, the paintings emit light directly from the paint to the viewer’s eyes giving a glow-in-the-dark sensation.
