We need one another

A few weeks ago I was climbing into my car to go pick up groceries when I saw a dog, tongue happily lolling out of its mouth, sprinting across a patch of grass in front of me. Not far behind the gleeful pup were two, equally gleeful PJ-clad toddlers scampering in the wake of theRead the whole post >>

Global Prayer Challenge for Moms, July 18-24

Recently, Delphine Ang, a passionate Catholic mother in the Philippines, reached out to me about joining a global prayer challenge for moms.

Humility & Some Upcoming Gigs

This past week I started having some interior knee pain. At first, I felt a subtle twinge during a run.

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.
