About the Author
Katherine Mansfield
Katherine Mansfield is a former award-winning journalist turned full-time stay-at-home mom who runs on ridiculous amounts of coffee and the sheer joy of parenthood. She writes essays and short fiction in the margins of motherhood. When she isn’t momming or writing, Mansfield enjoys watching classic films with her husband, reading fiction, and embarrassingly long coffee shop dates with friends. Every short story sale is met with a happy dance; it fuels the writer’s dream and helps her teach her two littles dreams are worth chasing, no matter how wild they seem. 🤍
