Caite Sajwaj is a writer of ghost stories and tall tales. Her work is inspired by the urban fringe areas of the Midwest and has appeared in Luna Station Quarterly, The Arcanist, and Metaphorosis Magazine.

I enjoy writing the human experience of what it means to find the people who make you the best version of yourself. A little laugh, a little heartache; balance is important. Witty banter is what my readers come to me for. Love stories and found family are my jam. Strong male leads and strong female leads that fill each other's gaps is what I strive for. When not writing, I am likely sitting in a tree reading or thinking about writing. If not there, I am in my greenhouse and garden, daydreaming barefoot. If not there, then I'm probably hiding in a closet so I don't have to share my piece of chocolate with one of my three kids (if they didn't hear the wrapper from across the world and catch me.) Unless it's winter. Then pray for me and send books and black coffee. Most importantly: do not disturb the potato.
