Welcome to my blog.

My name is Katherine Fawcett Ruch.  I spent my formative years growing up in Brazil with missionary parents, lived in Europe for a year after high school, and then attended Wheaton College, receiving a BA in English and Secondary Education with a lot of extra theater classes.  Then I went back to Brazil where I taught in an international school for three happy years, living around my parents and siblings. Upon returning to the United States to get an MA in English at Northwestern University, I re-met Stewart Ruch, who became my best friend and husband.  In my early married years, I taught English at Wheaton Academy and spent time doing theater projects.
