Cathy Smith

Cathy Smith is the real name of Zara Brooks-Watson and Sophia Watson. She writes poetry, takes digital photos of her favorite places such as the Florida Everglades, Harvard Yard, southern California beaches and the creeks, ponds and rivers of northern Maine, where she lives.

She owns a fine, rescued Yorkshire Terrier named Sparky who fills her days with Yorkie chatter and a very sparky personality. She has been writing for most of her life, since childhood -- and learning the complicated craft as well. She has also been vegan/vegetarian for about thirty years or more, and very happy with that. Likes riding bicycles and creating new worlds and people through her authorship and meeting her amazing readers. "Waiting for the Sunrise" is her volume of collected poetry.

Ms. Smith attended Boston University (graduating magna cum laude) and Harvard University which she finds to be a subtle, beautiful and natural place filled with cherry trees, owls and super-friendly squirrels. Links to all her other ebooks are at the same website below. She also enjoys writing cozy mysteries and short stories.
