A Cure for the Blues

Been suffering from the blahs? Me, too. But not so much anymore. Not after all this. Here’s what offered just the pick-me-up I needed (but rest assured, you really don’t need a beach or even a trip. What you need is faith, hope, and unhurried time with your family. Good food doesn’t hurt either.): TakeRead 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. We’re spending our Saturdays on the soccer field sidelines again. Madeline loves the game andRead the whole post >>

[this moment]

One of these days I’m really going to miss those frog legs.    {this moment} – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you’re inspired to do the same, visit SoulemamaRead the whole post >>

Vacation Images and a Few Words, Too

Two weeks ago I practiced the art of doing nothing (and I’m finally getting around to writing about it now because we’ve had a lot more to do than nothing since returning home). So did my children. We were busy; yet, we weren’t. The paradox of vacation. We had no schedule to stick to, errandsRead 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.
