"Problem solving is done in the woods a lot of times for me... or doing dishes, you'll have an aha moment, right? It's the magic—you can't beat it into fruition... magically, it just shows itself. It's quite fun." — Katrina Denza

Katrina Denza’s stories have appeared in Nelle, Slippery Elm, and Jabberwock Review, among other places. Her work has received a scholarship from the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference and a fellowship from the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. Her debut story collection, BURNER AND OTHER STORIES, was published in November 2025. From 2015 to 2021 she served as chair of the Writers-in-Residence Program for the Weymouth Center for the Arts & Humanities in North Carolina.

Among other things, Katrina and Carter discuss New England, learning to fall in love with the process, and how inspiration can strike at random moments. At the end of their conversation, they make up a gripping story using a line from The Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald.
