1st Review of Jael.In a Tent. With a Spike.

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on April 1, 2013 by Kelli Jae BaeliApril 13, 2014

Recently, I’ve been trying to market my 6 volume magnum opus, Supernatural Hypocrisy: The Cognitive Dissonance of a God Cosmology, as I am in the unique position of being a relatively small fish in a big pond, where that material is concerned. Since I am no Sam Harris or Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens, my name alone will not sell a book–especially one like this.I do mention this in the Author’s Note: I am not a Bible scholar or a Ph.D.–wielding lecturer, nor a scientist. I was one semester away from a degree in Professional Writing & Editing, and intend … Continue reading →

Reading, Muses, Curses & the Pick-A-Project-Polka.

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on January 30, 2013 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 4, 2013

  Since completing the third and fourth books (simultaneously) of the AKA Investigations series, I am doing that Pick-A-Project-Polka; a dance we writers do when we’re trying to decide what we feel like working on next; we listen to our muse, we dance with our muse, we kick our muse out and get practical, and we sometimes curse our muse and send it to bed without dinner. All of these I’ve done this time around, as well. Fortunately, I seem to have spent enough time on a particular draft to safely assume it’s the one I will be finishing next. … Continue reading →

Is This What it Takes?

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 17, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 17, 2011

Today, I worked on the 3rd book of the AKA Investigations series. I had to really think about what changed to make me go into that zone again–I’ve been trying so long to get there. One thing was that i just enjoyed a visit with my best friend who came to see me for 4 days. I hadn’t seen her in over 2 years. We had a great social time. Then, while she was here, I held my first local meeting of Kindred Ink Writers Initiative (KIWI) and got to talk a lot about writing, both in the group and … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I don't understand everything I read, precisely because I don't read only what I understand."

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)

Quotes for Writers

Writing is a fairly lonely business unless you invite people in to watch you do it, which is often distracting and then you have to ask them to leave. ~ Marc Lawrence

Word of the Day

skein skayn A length of thread or yarn wound in a loose long coil. Something suggesting the coil of a skein, a complex tangle. A flock of geese or similar birds in flight.

Favorite Quotes

Dorothy Parker once remarked of a book she read: "This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force."

@KrisGoldsmith85 @susanv1227 @Acosta @AndrewYang @Fwd_Party @Acosta of @CNN gave a masterclass in interviewing when he questioned @AndrewYang on his Forward Party. It has zero policy positions. It is currently behind Murcowski & McMullin. Sure don't see any democrats. No policy on abortion, guns, education, etc. @DavidJollyFL knows better
