Welcome, and thanks for tracking me down. I hope it wasn’t too difficult, and that you enjoy the site. You’ll find information about my books (for both children and adults), a bit of biographical background and some useful links. There's also some music which I recorded with two friends when The New Policeman first came out. Have a listen, if you have time. If you’re not familiar with Irish traditional music it will give you a taste.

I’ve been procrastinating about setting up a website for years, and in the end it turned out to be much simpler than I had anticipated, thanks to my webmaster Féilim Breatnach. If you have any queries you can write to me directly at my email address listed in the links page. I’ll answer as many of your messages as I can, but I hope you'll understand that I may not be able to get to them immediately.

Finally, am I the Kate Thompson you are looking for? If not, please go to the links page, where you’ll find a listing for the other Kate Thompson.

With best wishes,

~ Kate Thompson
