Letting God In

I had my first meeting with a spiritual director this past week. Not surprisingly, I spent a big chunk of the time rambling about where I am spiritually, some of the challenges I face, my difficulties with spiritual dryness. Yada. Yada. Yada. In short, I put my faith life and my innermost struggles with itRead the whole post >>

7 Quick takes (Vol. 6)

~1~ In a recent tweet (I still can’t believe I’m Twittering. I’m the lady who frequently forgets to carry her cell phone with her and has never sent a text message in my life), I shared that we were having Blob Day. This is a tradition I’m passing along to my kids from my ownRead 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.
