Elle: Shelf Life

Kelly contributed to Shelf Life, ELLE.com’s books column, “in which authors share their most memorable reads. Whether you’re on the hunt for a book to console you, move you profoundly, or make you laugh, consider a recommendation from the writers in our series, who, like you (since you’re here), love books. Perhaps one of their favorite titles will become one of yours, too.”

Kelly’s column by Riza Cruz is here.

Skinder’s Veil

Kelly has a new story — “Skinder’s Veil” — in Ellen Datlow’s new anthology When Things Get Dark: Stories inspired by Shirley Jackson. Signed copies are available from Book Moon.

Diagram

Kelly contributed to the 20th anniversary anthology of Diagram:

a tarot deck: an exquisite literary object and a usable tarot deck usable for divination. As with our 10th anniversary poker deck, our contributors randomly selected cards and created new works in the spirit of the cards they drew. Unlike most of our anthologies, this features all new work and celebrates 20 damn years of publishing DIAGRAM, one of the oldest (and best we daresay) literary journals around.

The 20th anniversary deck features 78 tarot-sized (2.75″ x 4.75″) cards in the four suits (wands, swords, cups, pentacles) and the major arcana in a custom box.

 

Dread and Delight

Kelly’s latest story, “The White Cat’s Divorce,” will be published in the catalog for an exhibit, “Dread and Delight: Fairy Tales in an Anxious World,” opening later this month at the Weatherspoon Art Museum in Greensboro, NC.
 
After its Greensboro debut, Dread & Delight will travel to the Faulconer Gallery at Grinnell College in Iowa and the Akron Art Museum in Ohio.
