About Kelly Munro

    I have always had a passion for writing. My first projects were centered around science fiction, fantasy, and the unimaginable. As time progressed, I slipped farther away from the carefree days of childhood and the tumultuous teenage years towards the never ending abyss of adulthood that is "what are we having for dinner?"

    My foray into contemporary romance began nearly ten years ago: countless hours filled with endless cups of orange pekoe and the incessant clattering of a keyboard until hundreds of thousands of words and dozens of stories were committed to paper. 

    Rushing Whispers is my answer to what I've seen in written and visual media for so long: that people who fall in love rarely stay in love, and that difficult relationships (where each person has their own trauma and baggage) are doomed to fail. The idea that working hard to make a relationship work isn't just false, it's also damaging. How many young people have seen real and fictional relationships fail time and again? Too many.

    The way I have chosen to present Rushing Whispers is also deliberate. The novels we buy at a bookstore or online have been pondered, played with, modified, sculpted, reworked, polished, and finally put on display. This long process isn't always obvious to writing amateurs (this word has become a quasi-insult, but its true form is a descriptor for one with passion and pure intent for a subject or pursuit) and has discouraged many writers from telling their stories. 

 

    I present Rushing Whispers in its early stages (somewhere between "played with" and "modified") with the mindset that if it helps even one writer to see the potential in their own work, I have succeeded. Note that almost more than a year after beginning this story, I've realized issues with the early chapters and things that perhaps I should have seen sooner— oh well, I say, that's a problem for the rewrite!

    I greatly enjoy sharing this story with you all, and I hope it brings you as much joy as your views and comments bring me! Emily, Liliane, Cameron, and the rest of the Amoeba boys have a lot to share with you—and I hope you stick around for it!
