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 >>

If You’re Happy and You (Should) Know It

This is how I had everything played out in my head. While my husband was across the country attending a conference for his new job, I would nest.

Still Nesting

I’m not sure, but this may be the first time I have sat down other than to eat or to nurse Mary Elizabeth in the past three days. We don’t have Internet in our home yet so even if I hadn’t been unpacking box after box and sorting and resorting, I doubt I would haveRead 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.
