Happy New Year everyone! I may not have hit my main goal in 2024, but I’m still proud of what I did accomplish, and I look forward to seeing what I can do in 2025. Hope you’re feeling proud of yourself too!

Hi all! New to Bluesky and thought I’d introduce myself. I’m Kelly (KC), a contemporary fiction writer from the Midwest. Outside of writing/reading, I love running (road & trail) and if money were no object I’d live on a horse farm with a handful of dogs. I look forward to connecting with everyone!
