Beth Kirschner grew up in upstate New York, went to college in Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula, and has traveled widely across the United States and the world.
The Keweenaw Peninsula is the setting for her debut novel, Copper Divide, where snow fall of over 300 inches a year is a common occurrence. Her upcoming novel takes place in the American southwest, where summer temperatures routinely reach over 100 degrees.
Her writing has moved from poetry to travel journals, short stories, and novels. When not writing, she works as a software engineer, flies single engine airplanes, and tries to takes the path less traveled. She has two children, two large cats, and a room of her own for imagining her next story
