FOR AUTHORS, EDITORS & CREATIVE PROS

FREE QUIZ:
Find Your Brand Sweet Spot

This 3-minute quiz combines brand strategy with a sprinkle of fun to match you with a look and feel that's uniquely you (and connects with your audience.)

Your work deserves a home online that shows up the way it exists in your head: thoughtful, a little bit magic, and unmistakably yours. A place readers want to come back to, and clients trust before you ever get on a call. (So you can finally get back to your TBR list. Or draft 18. Or a nap.)

but passion and purpose don't build the website, and pick the fonts, and write your bio, and, and, and...
and maybe you weren't meant to do all of this alone.

Work with Me

Hi, I'm Katy 

I help authors, editors, and creatives build websites that feel like a natural extension of your work.

I spent 15 years in marketing for companies like Papyrus before starting Take the Road. These days, I split my time between building websites and revising my own YA fantasy, so I understand the push and pull of the creative process (and anything that's not the creative process.)

I’m also a mom of 3, a blackbelt in Taekwondo, an avid reader, an overthinker, and a loud laugher… How about you?
