Katie's short fiction has appeared or is forthcoming in publications including Alberta Views, Tahoma Literary Review, A Cappella Zoo, Punchnel's, Eunioa Review, and Bare Fiction Magazine. She is currently completing a collection of linked short fiction set in the greater Edmonton Area.

Her children's books include the self-published bereavement book, Sunbeams, which raised over $3000 for a Strathcona County family after the loss of a young father. She also wrote the 2012 book, Hope is in Our Hands, published by the Slave Lake Firefighter's Society and gifted to children throughout Alberta, Canada, and the developed world following Lesser Slave Lake's 2011 wildfires.

Her magazine article, Are Emoticons a Woman Thing?, was featured as the spring 2014 cover feature of Canada's leading feminist journal, Herizons Magazine. Other magazine, essays, and creative nonfiction publications include Readers Digest, OhBaby! Magazine, and Erica Ehm's Yummy Mummy Club.
