“Creating a life she loves implies knowing what to do with the pieces. That’s a by-product of divorces: going to pieces.”

A woman in midlife finds her world shattered. To help her put the pieces back together again, she turns to blogging to recover the lost writer and dreamer within.  Her mind, like an old-fashioned backyard moonshine still meeting a typewriter, bubbles and dings and spits, resulting in tasty word tonics that become a series of blog posts.

Under the layers, at its heart, this is the heroic tale of a storyteller who finds her voice. Crossing lines everywhere in all its raw glory, the song of hope is in it all, offering an encouraging beacon of compassion to those who follow. In every chapter, a pithy elixir emerges that offers insight and healing. The reader has a window into the story behind the story, digging deeper and deeper, to the journey toward wholeness while creating a life one loves. This book is both an intimate portrait of a contemporary woman breaking free of constraints, and a call to all daydream believers to follow their hearts to joy. 

Divine Moonshine speaks to the odd, the unique, the weirdos, the dreamers who march to the beat of their own drums. And to the ones who are through accepting limits, ready to undertake the courageous personal quest to be one’s self and bloom in all their organic glory.

“Let’s question ‘normal.’ Let’s question the importance of ‘fitting in.’ Let’s question our paradigms.”

This compelling story is raw and honest, blending storytelling with a straight-forward primer. While weaving her music through the fabric of this tale of her own journey to authenticity, Katherine Fairlight Young also creates a must read manual for the caring and conscientious parent, caregiver, teacher or influencer of children who is looking for a road map to guide the great potential they see in the children blessed to them. She draws upon the wisdom of the stars to help shatter the fading paradigm of ‘normal,’ and to lovingly shepherd our little ones to shine in their own grand design.

Available in both paperback and Kindle formats. A companion album of Katherine’s original songs, Naked & Undone by Simple Souls, is available on Amazon as well as on most streaming services and digital music retailers.

Hi, I’m Katherine, a nomadic poet, a dreamer at heart, and a traveler living in a home on wheels lovingly dubbed Cloud House. In 2020, after a devastating divorce that shattered my life, and in the midst of the pandemic, I sold my home and belongings and launched into the odyssey with my son and our puppy named Dreamurr. Leaving behind a long career in the real estate business, I set off to look for America. What I found, unexpectedly, was myself.  If you are a person with a dream, big or small, come follow my story on my YouTube channel, Divine Moonshine, created to inspire you to follow your dreams and create a life you love. From my dreamer heart to yours… I’ll see you on the next episode of Notepad of a Poetic Nomad.
