Letter to My Unborn Baby

Preface: I write a journal for each of my children during my pregnancies. I plan on passing these journals along to my children when they’re first expecting their own baby or perhaps to commemorate some other milestone in life. My first child’s journal includes long-winded accounts of my day, my dreams for her, details ofRead the whole post >>

Helplessness

I don’t know what made me wake up at just after 4 a.m. I did not hear any crying, but I climbed out of bed, though I’m not supposed to, and fumbled my way through the dark hallway. I cracked open the door to Madeline’s bedroom wide and saw Gaba cuddling close to her inRead the whole post >>

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.
