Romance on the Rocks

Where Happily Ever After is always on Tap!

Trope! The Virgin Librarian

September 27, 2016 by J. Keely Thrall

When I first started reading romance (around age 13), I pretty much read whatever I could get my hands on. Slowly, I began gravitating to certain story lines - a bluestocking Regency heroine facing her debut in the Ton? Coworkers struggling to keep things professional (bonus points if the set up was boss/secretary)? Catnip! Later, I'd learn these recognizable situations … [Read more...]

True North

August 27, 2016 by J. Keely Thrall

Words! I love'em. Usually, I stick with my comfort zone - genre writing, business letters, tons of email and texts between friends. But sometimes I'm bludgeoned by the poetry muse and I find I just gotta get it down. Such was the case this week, when Calliope kept me up past my bedtime, forcing me to jot the below down. I'd call it more aspirational than epic, but it pleased me … [Read more...]

You’re Not the Boss of My Hair (The Hamster Wheel in Keely’s Head)

July 27, 2016 by J. Keely Thrall

Not the normal "it's this drab color when in my heart I'm a striking redhead/blonde/brunette" or "it's too fine/too thin/too coarse." Not even the evergreen lament "it's straight/curly and I want it curly/straight." By and large, I'm happy with my "birth" hair and I like feeling free to mix it up on … [Read more...]

I’m a Word Geek and I Know It

June 27, 2016 by J. Keely Thrall

In high school, I read voraciously. Not much has changed, as I'm pretty sure I read four books in the last week. Score! Back then, my brain was pretty spongy (that sounds awful!). Everything I slurped up I added to my knowledge well. Not so uncommon, I guess, when we're young. In addition to the education that school and sports and socializing offered, one of my … [Read more...]

On Turning 45 and Taking Stock

May 27, 2016 by J. Keely Thrall

If I'd had to deal with the first six months of my 44th year at one go, I'm pretty sure it would have crushed me. My birth family started unraveling (again), sending me into therapy. My Achilles tendon decided to go all itis-y on me, necessitating months of physical therapy. And what should have been a sprained wrist (really, it should just have been a sprained wrist, damn it) … [Read more...]
