An irreverent storyteller with a foul mouth and big heart, Kathryn Mayer (aka Kathy and/or Kate) is a writer, humorist, and (former) activist writing out loud with humor and grace about little life moments with big ripples.
Sometimes a big deal, sometimes not
Mayer is a national award-winning columnist, according to the National Society of Newspaper Columnists, and her essays have been recognized as Voice of the Year from SheKnows/BlogHer, named Best Personal Blog by Connecticut Press Club, and achieved best spoken word awards. Mayer is a kick-ass marketing copywriter, essayist, and humorist; forever grateful for her beloved Newtown, CT, storyteller at Read650, and once upon a time, given the mic at NYC Listen To Your Mother Show.
A potty-mouth thinker writing out loud with humor and angst, she’s a reluctant inductee into AARP, proud mom of four and a half grown-ass adults, and an aspiring writer with rejections to prove it.
She seldom writes in third person, and this makes her very uncomfortable, like a close talker, or an excessive hugger. She is also never referred to by last name, so that’s weird, but then again, she has significant name issues.

Mayer shares life as she lives it, the good, the bad, the funny. Thanks for checking her out.
