Today on the Quixotic Heights show, we’re joined by a true storytelling chameleon—Susan Kite. With thirteen books under her belt, she’s mastered genres from science fiction to whimsical children’s tall tales and even penned stories in the world of Zorro. Whether she’s crafting distant galaxies, playful animal adventures, or historical sword fights, Susan brings imagination, heart, and a deep love for storytelling to everything she writes. In this conversation, we’ll explorewhat it means to write across genres, how she keeps the creative spark alive, and what she’s learned from a lifetime of literary adventures. Get ready to be inspired!Susan Kite has been writing for over thirty years, beginning with fan-fiction. A visit to the Mission San Luis Rey in 2001 became the catalyst to write her first novel, My House of Dreams. She has written science fiction, fantasy, tall tales, and historical fiction. Bold Venture Press published the author’s three Zorro novels: The Outward Journey, The Forbidden Country, and The Deadly Homecoming, along with several Zorro short stories. Voyage of the Sea Dragon; Into the Dream World is the author’s entry into sea-based science fiction.
