OT

The girls – all three of them (or so I thought) – were upstairs playing in a safe (or so I thought), designated kids’ area. I was downstairs searching for a blasted username for an online bill payment service and also trying to register for one of those perks programs for our local office supplyRead the whole post >>

Meaningful Chitchat

I had the opportunity to chat with two of my favorite mom writers yesterday on the Faith & Family LIVE podcast. (And boy was it fun!) Rachel Balducci (host of Testosterhome and author of How to Tuck in a Superhero), Lisa Hendey (founder of Catholic Mom and author of The Handbook for Catholic Moms), andRead the whole post >>

A Therapeutic Rant

I’m still working on organizing my photos and thoughts from my trip last week. Stay tuned…  I’m also still trying to catch up on laundry. One week of it piling up has left me buried beneath an overwhelming mound. (The kids love it – what fun to hide in all the dirty socks and underwear!)Read the whole post >>

Creating, Living, Breathing, Pausing

 Where have I been? Why the silence? Why the sole blinking cursor that never turns into letters or words?  First, we were busy creating (hence, the blog post below). My hands all dirty with paint and pastel chalk dust steered clear of the pristine (sterile, lifeless) keyboard.  More recently, we found ourselves in rural MaineRead the whole post >>

Glimpses

I’ve had a few requests for more glimpses into our new nest and our new life (which is blessedly beginning to find a happy, good rhythm), so here goes (my flash went out for a few of the shots and I could not find our charger immediately, so forgive the grainy quality): This is myRead 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.
