Totes & Noodles & Flannel

Duct Tape & a Tarp

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on May 1, 2018 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

5.0 out of 5 stars Strong Amusing Story June 1, 2018 What a fun read. The characters are fresh and interesting. The story goes places that you wouldn’t believe, being both dramatic and amusing. This is an excellent read, and I did so in one sitting. Into every life a little rain must fall. Sometimes it’s a sprinkle, and sometimes it’s a deluge. This is the wetter one. Drew Keen is not a People-person. No surprise, she’s lived in the Northwoods for the last decade, living simply and working freelance photography jobs for National Geographic. Finally, the loneliness persuades her to … Continue reading →

Story Book:
(Sister Resisters 2272)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 29, 2017 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

Sometimes the best decisions are the ones we make when we have no choice. “Kudos to Ms. Baeli! This story is fantastic. Talk about covering some ground (or space) in a short book–this is a prime example of brilliant writing.” “I remembered the history lessons my grandmother gave me, passed down from her mother, and her mother’s mother. How it used to be perfectly acceptable for two of the same gender to mate. All it took was the apathy of the people, and one fascist regime—one started by a man named P. Murt D’lanod—taking over the governing bodies, and all … Continue reading →

Tristoon the Incorrigible

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 7, 2017 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

After Beowulf, and before Xena, there was Tristoon… (a spoof) “….Then she had made her way back to the Redwood, ushering out the dwarf-people who had taken time out from their incessant cookie-baking to try on her clothes.” From Note to the Reader Hello, Reader, glad to see you reading. Especially something of mine. I hope you’ll do that again with—oh, ALL my work. For now, a few things about Tristoon: It was written in 1984 after I took a British Literature course. I loved the Beowulf story, but found that I kept laughing, because I would see all these … Continue reading →

Venetian Blinds

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 4, 2017 by Kelli Jae BaeliAugust 6, 2017

A collection of short fiction by bestselling, genre-hopping indie author, Kelli Jae Baeli, which are, as the author says in her Before Words, “some funny, some strange, some serious, and some even flirt with the Dark Side (where, social media tells me, they have cookies).” She adds, “Populating these stories are an unusual alien; a ghost, Captain Kirk; Beowulf’s spoofy illegitimate warrior-daughter, a violence victim; a stiff, oblivious couple; an estranged daughter; a vengeful girl, a confused young woman; murderous offspring; a frustrated female rookie cop…” None have a common thread or common genre, but all are snippets of the … Continue reading →

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 23, 2016 by Kelli Jae BaeliSeptember 11, 2020

Separate Books India doesn’t write romance. There’s none of that confusing touchy-feely stuff in her science fiction novels. Hell, she doesn’t even read romance; and as for the lesbian aspect, she’s not sure how to define her sexuality, but if she’s a lesbian, then she’s far enough in the closet to be considered a hanger. Tegan is thrilled to have the opportunity to write alongside another author in a quaint cabin in the mountains, though it’s a challenge to be with the awkward and socially-inept India. Not that Tegan views herself as anyone’s fantasy; she’s on crutches, and who would … Continue reading →

Literary Loitering

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 14, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

With her usual flair for passion and wit, Baeli shines as she examines reading habits–her own, and that of others–in this 3rd volume of the Reading, Writing & No Arithmetic series. On display are also more of her thoughts about her writing process and the sometimes difficult obstacles that go along with being an Indie author and publisher. With essay titles like Thoughts from a Literary Contrarian, Alien Methodology, Scribe’s Melancholia, Literary Mind-Expansion & 50 Shades of Grape, Careless Editors & Languishing in Romantical Writer Myths, Holding Saddlehorn, Fiction Writes Me, Good Writers Aren’t Good Accidentally, and Writer as Reader, … Continue reading →

Ravens

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 14, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliOctober 31, 2020

  Excerpt: His eyes fell to the package on the floor of the culvert, his voice echoing in the concrete tunnel. “What have you done?” Roman hissed. “What you won’t.” Roman squinted at his sister. “Again, I thought we were supposed to be sharing the helm.” She shoved her hands in the pockets of her patchwork leather coat. “That ship has sailed.” Flippant as always. “So is this your version of a coup? Shall I graciously step down and leave you to your own devices?” “Probably wise.” “Rayna!” he scolded. “You’re not suited to leadership, dear brother. Your spine is … Continue reading →

Pariahs & Prodigals (Rain Falls #3)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on July 16, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 17, 2022

        EXCERPT: Meeting My Maker & Other Kitchen Disasters The Krups KM-7000. It ground its own beans. It made perfectly calibrated coffee. It was, without question the best Christmas present she’d ever received. Bless Tegan. Bless her cute little blonde head full of wonderful gift ideas. India stood in front of the divine contraption, having added distilled water to the reservoir, loaded the organic cone filter, poured in the Costa Rica Peaberry beans, and listened to the machine create the freshly pulverized, aromatic grounds, begin the brewing cycle. Her nostrils flared with hedonistic satisfaction at the scent, … Continue reading →

Keepers:
New Harbor Witches #1

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on January 13, 2015 by Kelli Jae BaeliSeptember 21, 2020

“An intelligent, well written story. In a refreshing departure from many ‘paranormal romances’, this book is truly well written. A combination of a page turning mystery combined with the melding of people that you want to cheer for. Treat yourself and read this book!” From an already accomplished writer, comes an engaging, sexy, and suspenseful new series about two sisters who thought they were ordinary, until they discovered they were not. Dane sparks runs a bistro and her best friend Trevor is the pseudo-chef who has tried every imaginable way to kill himself, but oddly, never succeeds. Gemma is a … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I'm an open book. But some of the pages are stuck together."

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)

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.
