Bio
Kelly Spitzer migrated from the mountain desert of southwest Colorado to the perpetually soggy lowlands of the Pacific Northwest. In 2001, she received her B.A. in political economy from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. While at Evergreen, Kelly published articles in The Cooper Point Journal, Works in Progress, and New Courier. During her last trimester, she designed an independent learning project centered on fiction techniques, and completed a rough draft of a novel. From there, instead of going on to law school as planned, she continued writing.
In 2002, Kelly joined Zoetrope Writer’s Studio to continue learning the craft. To date, her fiction has appeared or is forthcoming in The Cream City Review, Redivider, The Binnacle, Hobart (web), 3:AM Magazine, Cezanne’s Carrot, flashquake, Vestal Review, NOÖ Journal, and more. You can find her interviews at Bookslut, Quick Fiction, Juked, and elsewhere. She is also a Pushcart Prize nominee.
In April of 2007, Kelly joined the staff of SmokeLong Quarterly, an online publication for flash fiction. That same month, she and her father launched a food blog called flavor a deux.
When she’s not sitting cross-legged in front of the computer, Kelly can be found creating in the kitchen, digging in the dirt, or learning the construction trade while she and her husband remodel their carriage house.
