About Katherine

I’m a Southerner raised in the dark forests of West Germany. I live in New York these days. I am blessed with the most wonderful children, it’s almost not fair. Working on cloning them, I’ll let you know how it goes. I enjoy friends with food in that order, and I cannot imagine life without music and art.

I collect French perfume and faded photographs, and find a moving beauty in the emptiness of Ross Penhall’s paintings. I love detours, red vines and Tuscan sunsets, the scent of roses at dawn, stem winding discussions about space and time, and Roger Federer. I have a soft spot—more like a soul deep bruise—for Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders). Check them out.

I’m inspired by Briony Tallis and everyone else.

I host a wifi writer’s group here: The Indolence. Join us. Contact me to share your writer life and ambitions.

Every story is a love story.
