The Love from Just One

I've been writing since I was in fourth grade as far as I can remember. Throughout the past thirteen years, I have honed my writing skills by paying attention in school and reading to gain different methods of writing. In my senior year of high school, my English teacher told my mom that I might as well look into a modeling career because I wasn't applying myself as best I could. After hearing those words coming from my mom, I started to really think about my future. Nothing seemed to be going my way until I watched a play written and performed by members of my church in the summer of 2008. That’s when I brought out a piece of paper and a pencil and began writing. Within' a month’s time, I had completed my first play, and the story was phenomenal. From there, I began writing more and more, until I extended my play into a story. But then, it was time for a change. I moved from my hometown, Barstow, California, to where I currently reside in La Verne, California. Here I worked at Wal-Mart as a receiving associate and then part of the asset protection team. I began writing poetry while at work: on break, lunch, or when I was at home because of my younger brother’s influence, Demetri Kelley. Together we wrote an inspirational poetry book titled God’s Words from this Generation, and it was published independently February 27, 2012, with CreateSpace. During that publishing process, I began writing my first novel titled 'The Love from Just One' on February 9, 2012. I finished writing that particular book on July 31, 2012, and I am excited for people of all ages to read it. Because the next chapter in my life has yet to be written, I won’t stop working the gift within' my hands that God has given.
