who is kat?

That Darn Kat is the weblog of Kat French, aka coffeecupkat: a gen-x wife, mom, web copywriter, and general geek-of-all-trades. I’ve been writing seriously since my early teens, and have written everything from radio commercials to 200 page technical proposals to build weapons simulators (which is odd, in retrospect, considering I’m a pacifist). My current full-time job is writing for the web (and the opinions expressed here are my own, and don’t represent those of my employer or anyone else.)

I’m a follower of Christ. I am insatiably curious. I have two kids and a husband who I love desperately, and who I think suspect I’m from outer space. I collect coffee cups and obsess about coffee and tea. I enjoy poking around in people’s psyches and figuring out why they do stupid and/or heroically crazy stuff. I love all modern day myths and fables (including the ones that come from Hollywood and Madison Avenue). I am (as most creative folks are) somewhat organizationally challenged, but I’ve learned a lot of cool tricks and lifehacks for dealing with it. I like building ready-to-assemble furniture (but don’t tell my husband–he doesn’t need to know I’m the Empress of the Cam Bolt!)

Feel free to make yourself at home, prop up your feet, and grab a cup of coffee.
