As in God Public Broadcasting… Never underestimate the power of God or television in a 3-year-old’s life.

Madeline: Mommy, can I watch Curious George?

Me: No. We’re not going to watch any TV today.

Madeline: Peeeaaaaasssss. It’s ‘ed-juuu-cational.’ [translation: educational]

Me: That doesn’t matter. We don’t need to watch TV every day.

Me again but this time under my breath, or so I thought: Geez…It’s amazing the power TV has over kids.

Madeline: That’s how God made me.

Me: Huh?

Madeline: He made me to like to watch TV.

Oh, God, how wily….errrr….I mean, wondrous your works.

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.
