Hello and Welcome

Secret Society of Words Publications
About Cat Sheely
My paradise is the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia where I live with my husband of more than 50 years. A graduate of several universities including Canberra, New England and Monash, and following multiple and varied careers from Navy Medic to Construction PM and then IT Project Director, I have settled down to being a writer, editor and part-time IT geek.
My published short stories include fantasy and science fiction although I am always inexplicably drawn into the sinister murk of disturbed minds. When it all becomes too much, I take the kayak out to sea or swear through an exercise or long walk to re-establish equilibrium.
Over the last few years my husband and I have also joined the ‘Grey Nomads’ and have traveled over 80,000 kms around our beautiful country. This year, 2024, we completed “The Lap” of Australia.
I am a proud founding member, along with Louise Falcioni and Suzanne Newnham, of the Secret Society of Words. We have a group of delightfully creative minds and I have had the pleasure to edit and write for the novella’s we have published which showcase just that.
