Kidisms Make Me Chuckle Every Time

Me: Thanks so much for taking such good care of your baby sister while I was upstairs.

Five-year-old: I really held the tent up, didn’t I?

Me: You mean held the fort down?

Five-year-old: Yeah that, too.

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.
