Awkward.

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 28, 2010 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 5, 2013

Saturday, I was to meet this woman at Metropolis (for the first time). When I stepped inside, a woman waiting at the counter turned, smiled at me and came toward me, as i said, “Rhonda?” (Not just as a courtesy, but because I couldn’t believe this was her. She didn’t look like her photo). But she said “yes” and shook my hand. We chatted– awkward small talk– as I was trying to get over the fact that she was NOTHING like I thought she’d be. And she was tall and lanky and her voice was odd. Too low. She even looked … Continue reading →

Two Alarm Fires, No Waiting

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 21, 2010 by Kelli Jae BaeliJanuary 19, 2014

Around 1 a.m., I had just gotten home from an evening out, and my friend Em called. While we were chatting, a VERY LOUD alarm went off. INSIDE MY APT….Let me just say, I HATE loud noises. Especially ones that feel like they are shredding my eardrums. I tracked the source to a big casing on the wall above a filing cabinet.  I pulled the barstool over, climbed up, and popped the casing off, but saw no battery. Then i realized it was the doorbell. So my attention went to the wall plate six inches to the left. It had a … Continue reading →

Projection

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 13, 2010 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 13, 2010

My eyes slid open at midnight, my attention on the projection clock image on the ceiling over my bed. 12:00. In the darkness, I watched it until it changed to –12:01. And then tears rolled down both checks and pooled at my temples. I closed my eyes again.

My Author Bio

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 11, 2010 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 11, 2013

(written by Redacted Friend) Baeli was born to spin a yarn. The daughter of a professional musician, she arrived in Wichita and began her journey with a song in her heart and a plethora of passion erupting from her pen. This love of lyrics, prose and poetry was just the simple seed of what would grow into a wordsmith’s obsession with the creation of multifarious characters and storylines that fork with dual plot lines into romance and intrigue. Oklahoma, Arkansas and Colorado are just a few locales that surface in Baeli’s novels as these places are ones she drank in … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"The 2nd Amendment needs updating to reflect our modern world. We don't use flintlock pistols anymore, we have high-tech weaponry meant for killing human beings. Civilians have no reasonable need for weapons of war."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein. ~ Red Smith

Favorite Quotes

If you are right to believe that religious faith offers the only real basis for morality, then atheists should be less moral than believers. In fact, they should be utterly immoral. Are they? Do members of atheist organizations in the United States commit more than their fair share of violent crimes? Do the members of the National Academy of Sciences, 93 percent of whom do not accept the idea of God, lie and cheat and steal with abandon? We can be reasonably confident that these groups are at least as well behaved as the general population. And yet, atheists are the most reviled minority in the United States. ~SAM HARRIS, Letter to a Christian Nation

My wife just said, "The most dangerous animal on the planet is a--"
And I interjected, like I'm on Jeopardy,"What is a white Republican man?"
{buzzer sound} "No. The most dangerous animal on the planet is an angry woman with nothing left to lose." #GenderWar #WarOnWomen

One tree was cut years ago and the big one has been holding onto and feeding it ever since.
They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn.🌳

I keep seeing these, so I made my own.

It is quite telling - women don’t appear to be the ones who are the “emotional” gender.
