On their farm in southeastern Minnesota, Catherine Friend and her companion of over twenty-five years raise sheep, ducks, and goats. Her memoir, Hit by a Farm: How I Learned to Quit Worrying and Love the Barn, was an Insightout Bookclub bestseller, and it tells the story of what happened to her relationship and literary career after she agreed to help her partner start the farm. (It has a nice ending.) Struck by a Farm was a finalist for a 2006 Lambda Literary Award and earned a 2007 GCLS award. Catherine has also written six children's books and received a Loft/McKnight Fellowship in Children's Literature in 2007. Catherine's hobbies include everything from writing to reading about writing to discussing writing to fretting about not writing.

She has worked as an economist, a project manager for a technical writing firm, taught writing for ten years, edited novels, and done a variety of odd jobs to avoid going back to work in the corporate world. She paints, plays the piano, and spends her free time with her companion, who makes her laugh every day.
