Kristen Kail Roberts has an obscure Buddhist history degree and former experience as a recipe blogger, event planner, and charitable fundraiser, among other seemingly unrelated things. Today, she writes adventure fantasy in the nooks and crannies of mom life and helps fellow authors as a developmental editor when time allows. She currently lives in Delaware with her partner of twenty years, two elder cats, and a toddler too clever for all of them combined.

Droughtbringer is the first work of fiction published under her name.
