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

"You can bail water 24/7, and no matter how good you are at not sinking, you still have a hole in your boat."

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)

Favorite Quotes

For those who stubbornly seek freedom, there can be no more urgent task than to come to understand the mechanisms and practices of indoctrination. These are easy to perceive in the totalitarian societies, much less so in the system of brainwashing under freedom to which we are subjected and which all too often we serve as willing or unwitting instruments.
~ Noam Chomsky
