Cat's Bio

Bio:

 Catherine Pollock is a freelance writer, blogger, and social media specialist based in Phoenix, Arizona. She is the author of Mirrors: A Short Story Collection and the upcoming release Overload: Short Stories For When Your World Flips Upside Down. Catherine studied history and creative writing at Northern Arizona University and spent a few years doing research for a construction publication before deciding to go it on her own.

Things that bring Catherine joy include lined sticky notes, cookies, sunrises, mountains, and giddy late night book chats with her sisters. She loves to travel, and when she doesn't have her nose stuck in a book or her fingers glued to a keyboard, she might be spotted jumping on a plane bound for somewhere far from the arid desert she calls home.

Whether it's a job opportunity or you just want to drop Catherine a line and let her know how much you love her writing, she would love to hear from you, and promises to get back to you as soon as she can.

Metaphors: Candles

I've recently fallen in love with candles. Since coming home from the World Race , I've bought at least one a month. My favorite candles are the ones that come in glass jars - because when they burn out, I can clean the remaining wax out and put the jars to other uses.

Will he take them up on it, and what will the consequences be? Opinion: I confess, I did i...

[Five Minute Friday] Purpose

Fiber bars, strewn along the side of the road. There had to be at least a dozen of them, still in their wrappers and completely unopened. No box in sight. Really? That's about the reaction my younger sister and I had when we stumbled on them on our early morning run. Really? along with disgusted sighs about the wastefulness of it. These were the expensive ones, not a generic store brand that kind of tastes and kind of looks the same sometimes. So, when we weren't keeping an eye out for their box, we speculated about what had happened. And wondered how many more we were going to see before the end of our run. "Maybe they took one bite and thought they were gross," my sister said. "So they threw them out because they didn't want them anymore." I let out one of those disgusted sighs and nodded along with her theory. "Yeah, or they got in a huge fight, and threw them out in a fit of rage." "That's a possibility." And...
