Hey there! I am Kaitlyn Weldon (she/her) – a freelance writer and historian specializing in American History.

Here you will find history tips and museum adventures!

Here’s How I Can Help You…

My mission is to make history fun, relatable, and accessible to all.

But I do more than just history – I consult on projects as a freelance writer, research assistant, and content creator.

I have worked with brands like Ranker Weird History, DoYouRemember?, and The Remedial Herstory Project. I have also consulted on individual research projects for book manuscripts and podcasts. Interested in viewing a selection of my work? My portfolio can be viewed here.

As we head into the last month of 2021, I saw this quote and wanted to share it with you. I don't know who originally said it, but I imagine they were most likely a wise person. Hey y’all! Here’s another post about the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum! Yesterday, I got to walk through the gardens and the new interactive children’s area. It was really cool! Make sure to check it out! Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!
