K. M. Trott is the author of Three Swords, The Quest for Redemption a fantasy author who writes character–driven stories centered on courage, redemption and resilience. She grew up on modern classics of fantasy and adventure films:  Star Wars, The Never-Ending Story, Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings.  These stories inspired her to take a childhood game she and her friends played and spin it into a compelling novel. She believes in weaving the universal themes of friendship, family and love into an engaging and entertaining story for young adults and adults alike.
 
K. M. Trott lives on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada with her mom and sister. When not immersed in fantastic worlds, she enjoys photography, hockey and going for walks.

TODAY's SPONSOR The Electric Mermaid is a hybrid literary event that began over 20 years ago under the banner of Words on Fire. First organized by North Island College creative writing students Fran Thiessen, Vicki Drybrough, and Libbie Morin, monthly meetings took place in Smitty’s Restaurant on 3rd Avenue in Port Alberni with reader’s voices competing with the clatter of dishes emanating from the kitchen. After a brief stint in another café, Words on Fire graduated to Char’s Landing where it persisted for a few years before its resurrection into its current iteration as Electric Mermaid, named in honour of Luma, a mermaid sculpture that illuminates the hall at Char’s. Covid pushed the event onto Zoom, and it continues to thrive as a hybrid event enjoyed by audiences live at Char’s and across Canada and beyond on Zoom.
