Kay Winters: My name is Kay Winters. I like my name. Kay is a nickname for Katherine, which I have always hated, because my parents called me Katherine when I did something bad. As an only child with no dog, there was no one else to blame for the spot on the table cloth, the clothes on the floor, the cookie I stole out of the jar. But I like Kay, and it's easy to say. Winters is just like the season, so that's easy to remember.
