Kelly Malleck is an author and storyteller who lives in the Pacific Northwest. She's self-published three books: Where Is Home: A Memoir, Tales from a Writers' Circle (an anthology written under a pen name and dedicated to her late memoir writing coach), and Fire Boss. Fire Boss is a historical novel based on the largest mine explosion in Roslyn, Washington, that occurred on May 10, 1892. Kelly is a wife and mother to two adult daughters. When she's not writing, you'll likely find her taking classes at the local YMCA, sweating and smiling.
