Kate Baer is a writer and poet based on the East Coast. Her work has regularly been featured on Joanna Goddard's Cup of Jo, Romper, and Huffington Post. What Kind of Woman is her first book.
Baer is a different kind of Instagram poet, not only in that her
poems convey a depth of emotion more cutting than the spare,
self-help word-art characteristic of so many social media-propelled
poet phenomena. But she also distinguishes herself by acknowledging
the self-seriousness of the genre (particularly among those who are
their own greatest promoters) and gently poking a hole in
it.--Vogue
If you want your breath to catch and your heart to stop, turn to
Kate Baer.--Cup of Jo
In these confident and fearless poems, Baer suggests that the
deepest and most vulnerable love is found in life's
imperfections.--Publishers Weekly
The poet's Instagram presence has become a balm for many in 2020,
and now her lyrical takes on feminism, marriage, and politics come
to the page IRL with this new
collection.--Entertainment Weekly
