Stephanie Johnston


Stephanie Johnston is a writer, publisher, and cat mom based in California. She’s the founder of Whisker & Wing Publishing and the author of I Thought About It, and No: Choosing a Life Without Kids—a raw, honest, and often funny exploration of what it means to build a full life outside of motherhood.

When she’s not writing, Stephanie manages clinical education operations for a nonprofit supporting clinicians who work with individuals with autism and developmental differences. She’s passionate about stories that challenge norms, celebrate choice, and spark meaningful conversations.

You can usually find her with her cats, a cup of coffee (or glass of wine) , and a new creative project in the works.
