Oops. I Did It Again.

I really hate Blogger sometimes (good thing I’ll soon be getting a blog makeover and won’t have to deal with it anymore). I had a post all scheduled that I hadn’t even spell checked yet. I went to read it and somehow it got possessed and poof! It was out there. Ugh. So don’t readRead the whole post >>

Argh!

Do you ever mean to schedule a post and not publish it, but it for some reason publishes? That just happened to me. I deleted the “on the move” post because we’re not quite on the move yet. It won’t be showing up on my blog until Monday or so. However, the post remains inRead the whole post >>

Some Further Thoughts on Feminism, Motherhood, and Having It All

The Black Hole of Cyberspace

I’m thinking really deep thoughts today. For instance, where do all the lost emails go? Are they hanging out with all my baby’s missing socks?

It’s Not About My Personal Bottom Line

Here’s my response (for better or worse) to this comment after this post: “That would be sad for you … I mean millions of uninsured Americans would have access healthcare, and middle class families could actually afford their bills… but if controlling the out-of-control medical industry means that your husband has to take a pay-cut,Read 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.
