Born and raised in mid-Michigan, Kathryn Houghton has spent most of her life in the Mitten State. She can't imagine living anywhere else-and not just because no one in Michigan looks at her funny when she calls it "pop" instead of "soda." It's the people that make Michigan feel like home. She teaches writing and editing at Michigan State University. She lives in Holt with her sister and three dogs.
