I’m a Big Sister

Today as we were leaving Nana and Pop’s house (we stopped by to cheer up Nana, who dislocated her shoulder on Saturday and is stuck in a sling), Pop waved to Madeline and said, “See you later, Alligator.”

“I’m not an alligator,” she replied with a furrowed brow. “I’m a big sister.”

Clearly, Madeline takes her new role very seriously.

Hi, I’m Kate

 

I'm the author of two nonfiction books Getting Past Perfect and Weightless, a storyteller*, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, mom of five, book junkie, socially awkward nerd as well as a speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery.

I am currently working towards my MFA in Fiction at Warren Wilson. Thank you to everyone who has read my drafts, offered feedback, and cheered me on. The writing life is often solitary, but I wouldn’t be here without a community of support.

*Some BODY to Love story for Rabbit Box
