Concept & Creator
​Greetings, fellow storytellers and curious thinkers. I'm KT Stanford, a writer enchanted by the magic of words and their power to transform our understanding of the world and ourselves.
​
I was born in the California desert and grew up primarily in the great state of Texas. I moved around a lot and like to think that I have adapted the perfect blend of West Coast wonder and Southern charm. My academic journey took me through the corridors of history to the craft of writing that equipped me with a bachelor's in history and a master's in writing composition. I use both disciplines to excavate stories, polish prose, and build an online community for authentic dialogue.
​
In 2022, I embarked on my greatest adventure yet – marrying the man who makes my world brighter. Our home resonates with music and laughter every day, shared with our loyal blue heeler who's been my faithful companion for nearly a decade. I lean on my big sister for unconditional support and rely on my inner circle to bring life to dreams that they've always championed.
​
Ponderfire was born from countless conversations with friends, family, and online kindred spirits. Those sparks of shared curiosity ignited a flame that now burns brightly here, a testament to the timeless power of storytelling and the connections it forges.
This isn't just a blog; it's a beacon for the curious, a gathering place for minds that refuse to stop questioning. ​
​
So, whether you're here to laugh, learn, or simply lose yourself in the power of storytelling, welcome to Ponderfire. Let's embark on this adventure together, celebrating our humanity and our attempt to understand the beautiful complexity of being human, one story at a time.​
