Kay is an Arizonan who’s wandered west until she reached the ocean, peeling away her Northern Arizona University degree in Biology for a pen and paper.
A graduate of Chapman University’s Screenwriting MFA program, Kay co-created a one-on-one writing coach program through Writersstore.com. Also, just to say she did, she once baked 30 pies in 30 days.
Kay met Elizabeth Dahl in a writing group and they bonded over a mutual love of mimosas, pancakes, and history.
Knowing screenwriting was her life’s ambition, Elizabeth naturally attended Georgia Institute of Technology, where she earned a B.S. in International Affairs and African Politics. . . . Things started making more sense when she moved to Los Angeles in 2009. A good Southerner, Elizabeth has a deep love of history, which writing allows her to indulge. She supports her screenwriting habit as a writer for the online magazine, The Manual.
Kay and Elizabeth continue to delve into forgotten corners of history and write about the amazing lives they uncover.
