Humor When You Need It Most

Several years ago, I decided to explore the happy side of life, while seeking deeper truths--or not," says Burns. "I wanted to see what humor could show me. At times I was inspired by the thought of a pagan Anne Lamotte or David Sedaris on estrogen."
Cate Burns salutes the absurd and quirky in life with non-fiction stories of heartfelt humor. Her writing honors (or defames) the lineage in her maternal family that dates to the Scottish poet Robert Burns. She has won numerous first place writing awards, including the London Book Festival, Lorrin Tarr Gill National Writing Competition, Amsterdam Book Festival, Paris Book Festival, and Women’s Voices Festival, Honolulu.
