She has always loved having a plan before doing anything including coming up with the scheme for the outline to her writings. This attention to detail translates even to her writing technique. Katharine’s attention to detail is no news to her juniors or anyone who has worked with her. She would spend the following two years typing away at her personal computer what is now known as her debut novel. The skyscraper combined with the thrill of living in New York brought her creative juices to life. More specifically, China’s Sky City project which is an enormous skyscraper that is home to all facilities that make up a city including malls and hospitals caught her creative eye. Her love for reading led to the idea for her debut book. McGee is a southern girl from Houston, Texas with all the charm that this accords. Like most intriguing experiences availed by the city, it turned her into an adopted New Yorker. The five years she spent savoring the energy that the West Village had to offer, the grittiness of Harlem and the festive spirit of Fifth Avenue imprinted on her. Her work falls under the dystopian romance genre. This second job soon yielded the manuscript for her debut novel which focused on life in a futuristic skyscraper. Like most residents of the city, she decided to take up a second job by night. Her novelist career took foot while working in NewYork as an editor. Katharine McGee is a graduate of Princeton University where she did her Bachelors degree in English and French Literature which she crowned with an MBA from Stanford.
