Welcome
The Desk of Karen Lee Field
Welcome to my corner of the writing world — a place where stories grow, mysteries unfold, and imagination is always welcome. I write fantasy adventure and middle‑grade mystery fiction, and this website is where I share my books, my writing journey, and the things I discover along the way.
Whether you’re a writer seeking guidance, a reader looking for your next favourite book, or simply someone who enjoys a good story, you’ll find something here to explore.

Thank you for visiting. I hope you enjoy your time at the desk.
My desk has several drawers, and I encourage you to snoop in the ones you find interesting.
This section of the website is dedicated to my life as a writer and my experience with self-publication. Writing is not an easy craft and, I believe, a writer never stops learning. I share my writing and publication journey - this includes the highs and the lows, so be warned.
Find out more about me and my books in this section of the website. I mainly write fantasy and adventure books, but I also have a dark fiction book too. All the books can be purchased via the links to online bookstores. All are under AU$5 and they are an instant download, unless you purchase a paperback version of course.
This section of the website has recently changed the most. I have removed all the old writing resources and will add up-to-date tips for new writers in the future.
If you like to read, then you will be interested in the book reviews and author interviews found on this page. We all want free ebooks, so I will share links to websites where you can download them legally.
Sometimes it is fun to dig deep into the archives of a site and see what turns up. If you enjoy doing that, here is a link to all the topics and categories you can find on this website. Enjoy!
If you see something wrong on the website (such as an error or a broken link), please let me know. Or, if you would like to send me an email for any other reason, please feel free to do so. I will endeavour to respond promptly.
And two last things:
I want to bring your attention to two important pages — my Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. Rest assured, regardless of what normally happens when you visit a website, this is a static website that doesn’t involve a dynamic or interactive element. There is no need for you to login or confirm your identity for any reason. I do not track your data for advertising or analytics purposes and have no way of checking that information anyway, even if there were cookies collecting the information. And if I had access to the information I would not and would never share it with anyone. Honestly, unless you send me a message via the contact form, I have no idea who has been here and/or when. Any information provided via the email form will be used for the purposes of reading your message and sending a response, if required, and then immediately deleted.
And last, but by no means the least important, I want to give a shout out to all the folks at Talk Tiddlywiki for their time, specific code, patience and continued advice, which helped me create this website. I love the result. Thank you.
Thank you for stopping by.
