Shell Angels and Poinsettia Princesses (And Cookies and Felt Bracelets, Too!)

Okay, so I’m really taking readers’ advice to heart and just covering the gamut of things – from eating disorder recovery to the futile search for a baby doll with special private parts (don’t ask). Today I’ve decided to share a triumphant moment for me in craft land! I love the idea of crafts, butRead the whole post >>

Argh! Pirate Birthday Party Fun

Last weekend we celebrated Madeline’s sixth birthday with friends and family. Sometime last year she became obsessed with pirates and the idea of searching for lost treasure.

To My Big Girl

Dear Madeline, I’ve been writing birthday letters to you and your sisters every year, and you’d think these sentimental snippets would get easier as you grew and started doing more interesting stuff than just babbling, toddling about, and excreting, but it’s tough to sum up what you mean to me as you grow older, biggerRead 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.
