EP95: From News Desks To Werewolves: How Lee K. Rogers Rewrote Her Destiny (And Her Name)

On this episode of "Into the Unknown" What happens when a seasoned newspaper reporter, memoirist, and book coach decides to trade fact for fiction—and her name along with it? Meet Lee K. Rogers, formerly known as Karen, who went from helping others tell their stories to crafting her own world of werewolves, witches, and sirens in small-town Kentucky. In this episode of Into the Unknown, host Jeremy Swick uncovers how one dream—literally—ignited Lee’s pivot from nonfiction authority to rising star in the world of "Romanticity" (romantic paranormal fantasy).

Lee shares her journey of claiming authorship not just as a profession but as a personal revolution—touching on everything from ghostwriting divorces (yep, really) to juggling single motherhood and building a book empire from her living room. If you’ve ever doubted your path, your passion, or your pen name, this episode will inspire you to rewrite your own narrative—monsters and all.
