There have been so many amazing moments on my journey as a published author and being accepted by Heraclon Audiobook Publishing to narrate my own story ranks high on the list. This moment of seeing the audiobook version of my memoir available for sale on Kobo and Amazon is the culmination of another learning curve on the adventure. Life is good!

A memoir from the first female cadet admitted to the Royal Military College of Canada.
Kate Armstrong was an ordinary young woman eager to leave an abusive childhood behind her when she became the first female cadet admitted to the Royal Military College of Canada. As she struggled for survival in the ultimate boys’ club, she called on her fierce and humourous spirit to push back against the whims of a domineering and patriarchal organization. Later in life, feeling unfulfilled in her post-military career, she realized that finding her true path forward meant she had to go back to the beginning and revisit the truth of what she had experienced all those years ago.
