Artist, writer, parent, partner, spreader of kindness, unapologetic progressive, and I’m currently all out of f***s to give. She/her/hers.
This poem is about trying to predict the future, and how you probably just have to give up some control.

I fully understand that most people do not care about poetry, yet I still feel compelled to post what I am writing. If you read this, thank you, I truly appreciate it. This is about feeling invisible. #poem #poems #poetry #PoetryCommunity #PoetryDaily #FreeVerse #ArtOfWords #WordedArt #BlueskyPoets

This poem is about how totally separate emotions can feel identical inside your body, and how hard that can be to deal with.

New blog post: April is the cruellest month

April is the cruellest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain. (April also breeds pollen, and lots of it.)

New blog post: Adventures in Nephrology.

My kidneys have decided to function less than optimally, on the same week that our insurance company dropped a lot of our providers from their network. Fun times!

New blog post: A-Z Gratitude List

2025 Katy is grateful that 2021 Katy created this "A-Z gratitude" list, because given the OMG-WTF-is-happening current situation, these things are helping me keep going.

New blog post! Big Mac Salad

Sometimes I crave a tiny little McDonald's cheeseburger with those minced onions (nostalgia from growing up!) but their food always makes me feel terrible afterwards. So I figured out a way to eat Big Macs whenever I want.

Trump and his supporters want us to despair, give up, and let them do whatever they want without consequence, because it's too hard to fight. And it IS hard to fight. But I have found help. Here's how I'm staying both informed and sane. busywoman.katyscott.com/2025/03/its-...

I finished up an artwork and would love for you to tell me what you think!

I’ve been working more on this tree. I wish I hadn’t painted all the small branches before I finalized the background, but I know painting the background last around all the other elements is a Grown Up Artist Skill that I never mastered. It’s frustrating but I’m progressing bit by bit. #art
