About Kathleen L. Small

I write as K. L. Small, a fiction author publishing stories for both young readers and adults. My work explores resilience, second chances, and the quiet bravery found in everyday lives.

I began publishing later in life, bringing a lifetime of experiences, observation, and curiosity to my storytelling. I live on a small Florida ranch, where animals, nature, and magical moments continually inspire my books. Read more about my life HERE.
