Thank you for reposting! I am very excited, too! (Although, like always, the actual pub day is a bit of a let-down. But, my launch party is on Saturday!)

It's here! Available in digital and paperback format, with audio coming soon. Dystopian sci-fi with a thread of clean romance... Early readers: "Perfect for fans of THE HANDMAID'S TALE." Me: "THE POWER meets 1984." I can't wait to hear what you think! www.amazon.com/Silent-Y-Kat...

Yeah, I try to avoid drama in real life and online, and I find it everywhere online, seems no matter where I look. It's disheartening. But when I find the bright spots, I try to celebrate them and share them! <3 PS Can't wait for more of your books!

What's scarier than skeletons, ghosts, and spiders? The dystopian world of 2142 in 𝘚𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘠! A govt w a surveil state to rival that in Orwell's 1984 & mandated full separation of the sexes, that's what. Where annihilation of 1 gender may be around the corner. @andrewvargaauthor.bsky.social - yours?

I like how clean your books are - it's so refreshing! I'm listening to an audiobook with swearing and sexual liberties ... written with abandon. I'm cringing as I listen! Yeah, and BS has become just as bad, imo. So many angry people just venting. I try to filter what I see, but it doesn't listen!

Oh boy... What a rite of passage.... Was she more excited or nervous?

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

I think they already made sci-fi books about that. Spoiler alert: it doesn't end well for humans.

Happy Thanksgiving! Not a huge fan of it either, unless Mr. B brines it first. Then we take the carcass and make an excellent turkey stock for soup. But the whole point of the holiday is for pumpkin pie, isn't it?

Thank you, Janet! The cover is always a nervous thing to reveal! :-/

Thanks for spotlighting this, Josh! I think what we should all pray for is for everyone to keep their souls. We must all fight for morality and ethics!

I had a local guy here print a shirt from me. He designed it, and the company printed it in a different state and shipped it to me. What kind of price is reasonable to you? I paid $30 each, but it was definitely custom, and quantity 1.

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 15/09/2025

I did! Fascinating! I didn't know school is compulsory starting at age 3 - wow! It's so different from US school.

This was interesting! I like your "(wo)man on the street" perspective. I am going to share this with my French class when they learn about the French school system!

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 05/09/2025

Can't wait for this one! (Hint: I was a beta reader and can confirm this book is FANTASTIC!) Wait 'til the end for the cover!

This is amazing!! What a gorgeous cover!! So hip and cute - makes me smile!

The audiobook of SCATTERED is here! I'm so proud of what my narrator, Natalie Beran, gave to the book. Take a listen! #TimeTravelAuthors #sciencefiction #amlistening Available from Audible, Apple Books, Kobo, Everand, B&N, and more! www.amazon.com/Audible-Scat...

Ah... Well, those are pretty good book settings, at least. :) I know they traveled down to Constantinople, right? And didn't they also venture into Russia? Less interesting plot possibilities there, perhaps. The trouble as well is it veers off what people think of as "Viking territory"...

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 13/08/2025

I think that's key! If you like it, others will too. And, your interest comes through in the spirit of the writing. We have a Norwegian graphic novel series called Valley of the Trolls, and the writer/illustrator said she wrote what she wished she'd had when she was young. It's WONDERFUL!

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 13/08/2025

Yeah... and it's hard to be authentic when, at your core, you despise social media. In fact, I was about to quit all social media when I was about to publish SCATTERED... but then I realized I needed it. Sigh.

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

It's pub day for a fellow #TimeTravelAuthor and expert in history! This is book 4 in an excellent YA #timetravel series chock-a-block with accurate historical details. It's like a better, YA version of that kid's treehouse series that even adults enjoy. Congrats, @andrewvargaauthor.bsky.social!!

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

Congrats on your pub day!! I love all your choices for book settings. Wow!!

1000% Can all authors just collectively quit this fake marketing crap, put all our books on a page with a little arrow pointing to it with "This book is good, buy it." Or the AZN/GR star rating. That would save time. All this is so contrived and tiring. It's a game, for the most part.

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 17/06/2025

I highly agree with this opinion. I enjoy reading several genres, both fiction and nonfiction, and there is definitely a correct moment for every book ... after proper aging... 😁 #amreading

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

I do this in my French HS classes. For me, it's the issue of using Google Translate, which cannot be blocked on their computers because schools use the whole suite of Google products (Classroom, Gmail, etc.). Many teachers in my school suggest kids do the work in class now. Sad, lazy world.

020

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

Yes! I agree with you. Thank you for your feedback! :) (Very late in replying ... I'm still not on here very much at all...)

Katherine Benfante, author of Scattered (Time travel! Physics!) @kbenfante.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

May reading is complete! I'm satisfied but sad about The Expanse series. I also highly recommend Extinction (#thriller, plenty of gore, FYI) and Eleanore of Avignon (#histfic, 1348). What did you read and like in May? #amreading
