In this vlog I share a day in the life writing and momming, my book tour, my upcoming launch, and my insane year-end writing goal. 👋 If you’re new here I’m Kelsey—rom-com author, former stand-up comic, mom of six. I make cozy, realistic “day in the life” vlogs, a podcast, writing tips, funny bits. I'm a lot. Subscribe for weekly humor, heart, inspo, motivation and zero perfectionism.
