Debut Author Podcast: Catherine Matthews

Catherine Matthews is an award-winning author who starts her day at 4 a.m. with a cup of coffee and an online writing session with her favorite authors from around the world. A proud Pacific Northwest native, she brings her roots to the page by telling the stories about strong women who face the storm and live their dreams—and the faithful hounds who love them. Her books, Releasing the Reins and Roadside Sisters, are filled with laughter, tears, and the reminder that we are all more powerful than our fears. When she's not writing, she can be found baking bread, road-tripping with her husband, and enjoying an evening by the fire pit with friends and her two beloved dogs, Wally and Delta.
