Katherine published the first issue of lintrigue.org in 1997 as a place to showcase the works of writers and artists. She enjoys sharing a variety of genres to bring about a deeper understanding of all cultures. L'Intrigue strives to share that twilight of negative capability whereby both the reader and writer experience that "emphatic openness to all experience" (Mellor).
Mellor, Anne K. English Romantic Irony. Cambridge UP, 1980. Print.
