Hello!

I'm Catherine Greer, and I’m happy you found your way to my author website…

I’m popping in from our home in Sydney, Australia (pictured here) to tell you a little bit about myself. I’m a mid-fifties author of fiction and non-fiction, and I love connecting with women through my books.

I lived in Canada for the first half of my life, and grew up the youngest of six siblings. In university, I earned a BA Honours and a Master’s degree in English literature, then worked as a technical writer, and taught English at a private high school on Vancouver Island. Then I met a handsome naval officer, married him, and immigrated to Australia.

Now we live in Sydney with two young adult sons — both in uni studying — and a shih tzu, Holly (Golightly) Greer, who is adorable and a character in my debut Young Adult novel, Love Lie Repeat (Penguin Books 2019). It’s a thriller, a psychological family drama, and a page turner.

You might be here because you read and loved my non-fiction books: Small Steps Are Perfect, The 10 Minute Fix, The 10 Minute Fix Journal, and Choosing Happiness.

I’ve also published two picture books: Violin & Cello and Jacaranda Snow.

I spend my days writing — mostly books, sometimes copywriting for corporate clients, and I blog about happiness tips every week…please join me!

I love people, coffee, our puppy and long talks with my husband. I’m a serial baker and I read in bed every night. My kitchen always seems to be full of teenagers and I love them!

What next? I’m excited about pitching my first adult novel. The genre is commercial women’s fiction—a ‘feel good’ book for us all. If you love Small Steps Are Perfect and The 10 Minute Fix, you’ll love this book, too. Details soon!
