Kate Doyle is an American writer in Amsterdam and the author of the debut short story collection I Meant It Once.

Her work has been published in No Tokens, Electric Literature, Split Lip, Chicago Review of Books, Joyland, The Millions, Lit Hub, Wigleaf, ANMLY, and elsewhere. She has received fellowships from Creative Europe, A Public Space, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the Hawthornden Foundation, New York University, and the Adirondack Center for Writing. I Meant It Once was longlisted for the 2024 Story Prize and a finalist for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize.

Before moving to Amsterdam, Kate lived in New York City, where she received an MFA from NYU, and in Ithaca, NY, where she worked at a bookshop. From Amsterdam, she now runs Luna Boeken, a project to support authors with book publicity. She also teaches creative writing and works as a freelance editor. The rest of the time, Kate can be found onstage performing comedy or else out for a walk with her dog Luna, who loves books as much as she does.
