Return of the Yes Mom!

After being inspired by this post, I’ve been trying to revert back to being more of a “yes” mom. No, I’m not giving in to every demand or allowing my preschooler and toddler to transform into tiny tyrants. What I am making an effort to do is to use less fighting words, to not alwaysRead the whole post >>

7 Quick Takes (I have no idea what volume I’m on)

I’ve been playing hooky on 7 Quick Takes Fridays, mainly because extracting seven semi-witty things from my gray-sludge-of-a-brain since giving birth to my third child has become next to impossible. But here I am again. Not because I’m feeling particularly witty, so go ahead and lower your expectations right now. It’s just that Jen’s gotRead the whole post >>

A Light Blogging Week

Gaba (my mom who’s pictured above with M.E.) is going to be staying with us over the next few days, so I’ll be going on a blogging diet and won’t be around much. She’s partially coming to watch the kiddos, so I can get my teeth cleaned. Ugh. I do not share Madeline’s enthusiasm forRead 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.
