Kate Solly is a writer, mother of six and really quite good at getting the bubbles out of plastic book wrap. While most of her time is spent finding lost shoes and investigating what’s making the car smell bad, Kate frequently escapes to write entertaining things. She has penned many articles, columns and reviews for various publications and is the author of Tuesday Evenings With the Copeton Craft Resistance. When she is not writing, she enjoys starting crochet projects and never finishing them.
