Thank You!

Things have been crazy around here. Last week I was nursing sick kids back to health (nothing serious – just the sniffles and the crankies). We had old friends over for dinner last Friday. It was our first time entertaining in our new home, and it went well. Then on Saturday we went to anotherRead the whole post >>

The Art of Losing

What I like about those digital pregnancy tests for dummies is that the result takes out any chance of guesswork or misinterpretation. Instead of squinting at the stick you just peed on and wondering if a second faint blue line is really going to appear or if that single line is going to turn intoRead the whole post >>

Good-bye, Summer. Hello, Fall.

The summer is waning despite the sticky 90-degree weather we endured last week. Pears are back in season, which makes my sweet Rachel so happy because there’s nothing she loves more than sinking her teeth into a ripe, juicy pear.

Serving v. Judging

It’s funny how so often a theme pops up in my life that just won’t go away.

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.
