Description

Kate Dickinson

Kate Dickinson writes children’s books using her experience as a nurse who sees children wrestle with complicated emotions. Kate has always loved to tell stories, and she appreciates a wild imagination and the creative arts. During her years working in hospice, Dickinson witnessed the grief of many families who lost loved ones. Seeing very little in the children’s book market to address this need, she felt the need to write stories that would help children wrestling with these complex emotions and fear. When she isn’t writing books, Kate spends time working with models, agents and publisher in the fashion industry and with local news outlets. She was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI.

Some of what we talked about:

• Superhero Kid in Training by Kate Dickinson
• Was rejected by main-line publishing so she chose independent publishing instead and paid $2000 to publish her book. Has a garage full of books but they are selling fast.
• Desperate Parents Handbook by Nedalee Thomas
• Not everyone is called to foster care but everyone is called to do something.
• Childshare
• Composed letters to the media to get on the news
• Gets a lot of her training from Youtube and Google
• One Hope 27
• And much more!
