Love this author, trust me you want this book! Her words are poetry :D

"It's just shackles chaining me to the past, Hold me there, holding me fast, 'Til escape is nary a thought in my mind, Elusive, illusion, then gone." #amwriting

I love it when a silly thought of mine that I add because why not? turns into something so deep and connected #amwriting

Don't mind me, I just have Alex Warren's Eternity on repeat as I draft Supernatural Therapist

The therapist is in. Rules of engagement: Don't let her know you're a supernatural creature. Don't get murdered by the sneaky shadow creature. And don't piss off the guard dog detective #unhingedpit #a #f #wip

Roll for Romance by Lenora Woods (out July 21st!) is such a cute, fun D&D inspired romp

Being a writer with ADHD is wild. That's MY emotional support [insert very mundane everyday object here] to trick my brain into doing what I want it to be doing

#WritingCommunity I'm getting queries w/really high words counts. If you're not writing SciFi or High Fantasy (i.e. LOTR) try to stay below 100K on a debut novel. FOR ME W/RARE EXCEPTIONS: Romance/Mystery/Suspense/Horror at >100K = Pass Romantasy at >110K = Pass tinyurl.com/saveyourdarlings

Sometimes when people say sibling interactions in books are not accurate or are too unrealistic I laugh, bc my siblings just told me to use "I'm a congested lizard" as a fun fact icebreaker answer 😂

A Queen of Prose said I'm cool 🥰

It's truly rude that a walking pad helps so much with focus. Ruins my couch potato vibes I've got going on 😂

GHOSTIES

TFW you TPK on session one of a new campaign. Oops.

I intended it to be my first goodbye, hauling the old year deep into the woods out back. "Leave it all," I thought, saying my short farewell and marching toward home. "Just leave it all there." But footsteps crunched behind me. Thin, fluttering warmth at my back. It's fine. Some things can stay.

Most days I don't like my wip, thinking it's not good enough. Most days I play the comparison game. Today I like my words 😊

Officially joined QT and plan to start querying my adult urban fantasy in the next month or so #writingcommunity

LOVE everything Kelly writes 💙

Relatedly, please send me book reccomendations to help me get through this trying time. What were your favorite books you read this year? (Favorite A03 fics are also welcomed 😊) #writingcommunity

In 4 days, people will be eyeballing this wip for the first time ever. #writingcommunity

I can't believe I wrote this

#writingcommunity Are you looking to query soon? Maybe JANUARY? Here's a list of my favorite querying tools that I believe helped me get requests, and eventually land my agent. Hope they help you, too! And, feel free to drop more tips in the comments below: open.substack.com/pub/kellylbe...

My attempt at making a moodboard for my wip #writingcommunity

I am apparently too slow a writer and am being (lovingly) threatened to hurry up or else 😂

If you give a person dnd, they'll want shiny math dice. If you give them shiny math dice, they'll want to give shiny math dice to other players. If they give shiny math dice to other players, they'll look up and realize they've got a little found family

Please know I read that to the tune of "I'm just Ken"
