As you know, I am soon launching an anthology with the Author Conservatory … Voices of the Future: Stories of Courage & Compassion. And, well, of course I think you should buy it! However, I do realize that a part of you is probably going, “Well, why should I?” Let me tell you why! But […]

HEY FOLKS! Kellyn here, and I’m SO READY for the launch of Wild Blue Wonder Press‘s first-ever anthology, a collection of eight novellas hand-selected to share some amazing Christian themes, both explicit and more subtle, with you.

![](https://kellynrothauthor.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/blog-post-header-for-lilacs-reveries-1-1024x405.png)
Hello my friends! Today I’m joining a blog collaboration with Grace A. Johnson and R.M. Archer. Our goal is to share about certain romance tropes. You can read Grace’s post on enemies-to-lovers here and R.M.’s post on arranged marriages. But now I get to say my piece, and I’m talking about something I don’t believe […]
A Post of Conundrums (in which I ramble about what God is saying to me)
![](https://kellynrothauthor.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/a-post-of-conundrums-1024x431.png)
Lately, I’ve been having a lot of thoughts, and it’s been a long time since I’ve rambled here. So I decided to talk about two things: Being a control freak and being a lazy bum. More or less. So let’s talk about that. The Self-Control Conundrum My car has been in two accidents (I was […]

![](https://kellynrothauthor.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/basic-blog-template-graphic-1.png)
I didn’t get a post out when it happened (I feel like I’ve been being repeatedly smacked with a baseball bat this month, and I’m not doing everything I should be as a result!), but the cover reveal for At Her Fingertips has come and gone! Here are some random pretties: So the book is […]
It’s Almost October! (e.g. time to talk about summer and September)
![](https://kellynrothauthor.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/its-almost-october-e.g.-time-to-talk-about-summer-and-september.png)
So since it’s now the 26th, meaning it’s four short days away from October, we should absolutely do a recap of the summer AND of the beginning of September (+ some goals for the next month or so). That makes perfect sense, right? Okay, good. Glad we’re on the same page. I’m going to do […]
The Hunger Games Quadrilogy (first time watching feat. lots of rants & nonsensical nonsense)
![](https://kellynrothauthor.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/5-things-historical-heroines-need-to-stop-doing-1.png)
I read The Hunger Games trilogy in my early teens, and I’ve always been a fan, but I just never got to watching the quadrilogy. Well … that is no longer true! I’ve watched it. I wrote a ton of notes (mostly jokes & rants) for my friends while doing it. I even jotted down […]

We’ve Come a Long Way, Mates
Hello, mates. I’ve been thinking about the future a lot – but, though my mantra could easily be “keep moving forward” (or “live in the moment; work for the future”), I love remembering the past, too. I’ve realized recently as I make plans for the future and think how to enact them in the present […]
Reveries on My Life + Just Chillin’
It’s been a while since I clicked “new post” without either having a post written in another document or having a very clear plan of what I wanted to write. But, as I click on this post, I realize … I don’t want to always be that sort of structured blogger. Sometimes I want to […]
God-Defined Dreamer
From movies to books to songs, you hear the resounding message: “Follow your dreams.” And I suppose there is some right in the saying. There’s certainly nothing wrong with working towards your goals.* However, I believe people who feel strongly that following your dreams** is the one way to go have missed Something important. Not […]
