Katherine writes laugh-and-cry books about how life knocks us down and how we get back up. She’s been compared to both Jane Austen and Nora Ephron, and her novel Happiness for Beginners is now a Netflix original. Katherine lives in her hometown of Houston, Texas, with her husband, two kids, and their fluffy-but-fierce dog. For more, visit https://katherinecenter.com.
