Freelance writer and researcher by day, Netflix viewer and sound sleeper by night. In between, you can find K.M. Langevin doing yoga, painting in an art journal, walking her two dogs, or dreaming about the day she rescues her next kitten.

K.M. is a 2013 winner of a Communicator “Gold” Award of Excellence, presented annually by the Academy of Interactive & Visual recognizing big ideas in marketing and communications for a feature article.

Under various iterations of her name, Langevin’s work has appeared in Woman’s Day, SELF, Parents, Parenting and Wine Enthusiast.

Admittedly, she spends way too much time on Twitter and not enough time writing for her own writer’s website.
