Welcome to my world
My name is Julia Kite, New Yorker and ex-Londoner who can't quit writing. The more I write, the more insatiably curious I become, and the more I learn, the more I can't stop at just one more sentence. My debut novel, The Hope and Anchor, was published in February 2018. Readers in the US can purchase it here, and readers in the UK here.
By day, I am a policy director for the New York City Department of Transportation, working on initiatives to improve urban street safety. What unites these different sides of my life is a passion for cities as the sites of constant change and renewal, where people take their best shot at living their dreams. I write about the ones who find things haven't exactly gone to plan.
Have a look around, rummage a bit, and get in touch!
