I Didn't Kiss a Girl

At least not lately. Although I do wear cherry lip balm.

I know, I know—you're thinking Kate, what the heck is going through your odd (but brilliant) mind now? You're speaking nonsense (once again). My answer: song lyrics, my friend. Song lyrics.

Specifically the song I Kissed a Girl by—can you believe it?—Kate Perry. Yeah, there's another Kate, although her name is really Katy. Rumor has it she's the daughter of Steve Perry, immortal frontman for Journey. I don't know if it's true or not, but I'm willing to believe it.

An aside: Journey rocks.

Anyway, I'm not writing about her or the song out of sheer delight. Don't get me wrong—the song is kicky. It makes you dance around your home like it's a nightclub. It has a way of sticking like gum in your head. No, I'm writing about the other Kate and her song because I've been getting fan mail for her.

In short, it's driving me batty.

Picture it: I log into my email, excited to hear from my fans, but instead I have all these i luv u messages to the other Kate. And if one more person asks me if I've kissed a girl...

But more than that, I don't understand how anyone can come to my site and think it belongs to a pop star instead of an author. And if you've read my bio, you'd know I write books, not songs. Duh.

So if you're looking for the Katy Perry who sings (quite nicely) about kissing a girl, you're in the wrong place. But if you want kick-ass, fun stories about sassy women, you're right at home.
