Susan Kite
Susan Kite is an Army brat; which means she grew up everywhere. She didn’t begin to settle down until her dad did. She earned two degrees at Utah State University, and began dabbling in writing. However, she didn’t get serious until her children were grown. Now it is a contagious disease and she doesn’t want to be cured!
Her first novel, My House of Dreams was written after several visits to the Mission San Luis Rey. A fantasy short story was included in an anthology published in 2013 called aMUSEing Tales. A science-fiction novel, The Mendel Experiment, was published in April, 2015 by World Castle Publishing and won second place at the Royal Palm Literary Award (Florida) in 2017.
