Jacqueline Killelea
“Why I write...
I write because characters and stories beat against the inside of my head, waiting for an escape. I desire to tell the stories of those long gone, who no longer are able to speak for themselves. I write so that the present does not forget the past; so that we might carry it as a reminder of the people that have lived long before us and the time that has ticked on by. I think it important to remember those faded smiles in photographs and scrawled ink in letters. We have always been the same: human. We always will be, and our stories reflect that.”
Jackie Killelea is a born and raised small-town girl from Connecticut with a degree in English and Creative Writing. She started off her writing journey with poetry, soon shifting into novels and becoming hooked. On days when she's not busy with her nose in a book, she can be found typing away with a piece of chocolate in hand.
