Author: K.T. Pike

My journey began with a foundation in Business Administration and a thirty-year career in retail management. Yet, the real magic happened later. I went back to school, where a college project reintroduced me to Dungeons and Dragons, and I was hooked. I’ve been a player and Dungeon Master ever since, channeling that same passion into creating compelling characters and expansive worlds. This creative spark led me to pursue my love for human stories, earning a BA in Biological Anthropology from UCSD. My diverse academic background and decades of real-world experience inform my debut novel, Catching Qat, a compelling fantasy that explores themes of connection and identity. Today, I serve my community as a Library Branch Manager and, in my off hours, I continue to play D&D, constantly fueling my imagination for new tales.
