A New Beginning

For several months now, I’d been considering giving my blog a complete face lift. Now I’ve done it. It’s a new look and a new name and while I love it, I’m still getting use to it. I imagine it will take some of my more loyal readers some time to get acquainted with theRead 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.
