A new beginning.

In some ways, my creative corner of the internet feels like a very long time coming. Over the years I’ve started and stopped so many projects that I’ve lost count. I was going through some old journals a few weeks back and I came across a bit that read, “I just want to be an actor and make books.” I think that entry was from 2011. It’s amazing how much has changed since then and yet somehow I feel like I’m coming back to myself. Twenty-something Kate knew what was up.

Back then the lifestyle blogs were my version of internet bliss. I would comb through Decor8 and A Beautiful Mess or anything in which Grace Bonney took part (Design Sponge was one of my favorites). I took a few courses back then on how to start my own blog and I had a blog as part of my acting website that I updated regularly, but it just slowly came to a halt when my focus shifted. Acting felt like a true calling, but I couldn’t make it work and at the time my priorities weren’t where they needed to be to be all in when it came to being an actor in New York. I also knew I had so many interests and at the time I didn’t quite see how they might all come together.

I still don’t quite know how all of my interests come together other than the fact they are all a part of me. What I do know is that I’m finally ready to show up for myself in a way I haven’t in the past. I’m ready to share my work and bits of myself that have been hidden away for some time. I’m not sure where that might take me, but let’s find out!
