John Barth described Cat Rambo's writings as "works of urban mythopoeia" -- her stories take place in a universe where chickens aid the lovelorn, Death is just another face on the train, and Bigfoot gives interviews to the media on a daily basis. She has worked as a programmer-writer for Microsoft and a Tarot card reader, professions which, she claims, both involve a certain combination of technical knowledge and willingness to go with the flow.
In 2005 she attended the Clarion West Writers' Workshop and in 2007 Taos Toolbox. She is a member of the Codex Writers' Group as well as Horrific Miscue - Seattle Branch. Among the places in which her stories have appeared are ASIMOV'S, WEIRD TALES, CLARKESWORLD, and STRANGE HORIZONS, garnering mentions and appearances in year's best of anthologies. She is a board member with Broad Universe and a volunteer with Clarion West.
