Hi everyone! I hope you’re enjoying the cooler autumn weather and getting ready for my favorite holiday, HALLOWEEN! (Yes, I know it’s early, but the damn Christmas stuff is already out in stores, so why not?) This issue of the Quill has info on my latest paranormal romance, flashes back to my horror stories, showcases my blog series, and more! Let’s get started….



If you like paranormal romances, don’t miss…

In Another World


This contemporary romance novel blends a murder mystery with the world of the paranormal. It’s received several excellent reviews!


In Another World A Paranormal Mystery/Romance Novel

Disgraced psychic medium Julie Kershaw has finally met her soul mate. The problem is he’s dead… and his spirit haunts the car she just bought.


The spirit of Detective Eddie Mahoney is determined to find his killer and needs Julie’s help. At first, she refuses. She’s tired of being called crazy and swore she’d never use her abilities to speak to the dead again—even if Eddie is handsome and charming.


Eddie persuades Julie to contact his former partner, Lou Kaplonski, to ask him to reopen his case. Skeptical, Lou dismisses Julie as a fake—until she proves she can communicate with the dead—and he finds out Eddie has a lot to say.


Julie channels Eddie’s spirit and together with Lou, the unusual trio tracks down leads and follows clues to solve Eddie’s murder. The case takes them down a dark and dangerous path filled with secrets, where nobody can be trusted.


As they work to find his killer, Julie falls for Eddie. Funny, smart, and sexy, Eddie is the guy of her dreams—and he doesn’t look or act the least bit dead. To her surprise, Eddie discovers a clever way they can be together, and they begin an ethereal romance.


When Lou’s investigation brings him too close to the killer, his life and Julie’s are put in danger—and Eddie may be the only one who can save them.

She’s forced to fight for her life and relies on Anubis to save her.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or stressed out lately and aren’t sure how to handle your emotions, why not try journaling?

In case you missed it… In 2021 I released my non-fiction guide, Journaling Every Week: 52 Topics to Get You Writing.


This fun and innovative book is filled with hundreds of journaling prompts that cover your childhood, friendships, beliefs and values, your career, coping with grief, fears, forgiveness, your purpose, and much more.


Whether you are experienced in journaling or completely new to the process, this book is designed to get you thinking about—and writing about—your life, relationships, patterns, goals, and some of your fondest memories. You’ll benefit from writing about these thought-provoking prompts and learn something about yourself along the way.


Journaling is a useful tool for self-discovery. In your journal, you can explore a wide range of subjects, themes, and ideas, revisit the past, and vent about anything (or anyone). In a way, you play counselor to yourself by digging deep into your innermost thoughts and emotions and writing about how you feel.


Journaling Every Week makes a great gift for yourself or someone you care about. Order it today and start journaling!

Kelli’s Continuing Blog Series…

This year I continued my two new blog series. The first is called Behind the Scenes. Each Behind the Scenes blog examines my romance novels. I talk about why I wrote the book, share my thoughts on the plot and/or characters, and reveal what I loved most (or least) about writing the book.


The second blog series is called Meet the Character Day. These blogs are fun chats with the heroes and heroines from my romances.


Each series is featured on both of my blogs. If you missed one, you can catch up here:


The series will be wrapping up in December. I’ll be starting a new (limited) series next year. Stay tuned for more details.


What’s Next?

As some of you may already know, I’ve been on hiatus from writing and social media for the last few months. I’ll be blogging about why and what I’ve been up to… But in the meantime know that I’ll be writing new horror stories (I just got a great idea the other day) and finally putting pen to paper for my contemporary gay romance. Stay tuned to my blogs and social media for updates.


I hope you enjoyed this autumn issue of the Quill. I welcome questions and comments from readers and other authors. Want to get in touch with me on social media? All my links are listed on the contact page of my site: https://www.kelliwilkins.com/contact


Happy Halloween! Kelli
