Dating My Husband

This past weekend my husband and I had the opportunity to enjoy a weekend retreat sans kids. During this babymoon of sorts, I read two books, slept more consecutive hours in two nights than I usually sleep in about three, and most importantly, had time to hop off the mommy track and enjoy my roleRead the whole post >>

Why I Love Date Nights

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.
