K.N. Brindle has worn many different hats in their life, which is impressive considering how difficult it is to find one that fits their extra-large head.
They've worked as a graphic designer, and in industrial design and architecture. They've built telecom equipment. They've been an app developer and a software architect, and have taught software engineering. They're a parent, a woodworker, and most recently a licensed therapist.
They are fine with any pronouns when used with respect, though they really hate being called "sir."
They live in the southeastern U.S. with their partner, their children, and just the right number of cats.

Paths of Memory
|
A life is lived one step at a time.
Arin's future was foretold at birth: They would be neither girl nor boy, and a witch besides.
When the prejudices of powerful neighbors intrude on the idyll of their isolated Freelander childhood, Arin's magic is awakened and their life spirals into violence and tragedy.
Taken captive and sold into household service, instead of toil and indignity Arin discovers a new family and a place of safety and healing. But even as they settle into a kind of peace, violence finds them again and their power intercedes once more.
Then an unexpected ally sets them on a new path, leading Arin to a true place of refuge-and an unsettling understanding: Their magical abilities are rooted in the very pain and trauma that has overturned their world. When Arin unexpectedly comes face-to-face with the author of that trauma, can they find a balance in themself between healing and vengeance? Or will the demons of their past bring all that they love to ruin?
The paths of memory are sown with the seeds of both pain and strength. The future can be shaped by either.
