Fox Cities Book Festival: Connecting writers and readers across our diverse communities.

Kelsey Rodkey is a burrito lover, banter enthusiast, and young adult author, who strives to create the stories she lacked as a teenager. Before starting her job as a communications coordinator, she helped a British film crew make a documentary about a dog grooming expo and was an extra in a music video as a girl who couldn’t stop playing with her hair. These days, between both of her jobs, she co-hosts a podcast called “Older & Wiser,” where she discusses the mayhem that is the publishing industry in Younger. She lives near the capital of Pennsylvania, which a lot of people think is Philadelphia, with her significant other and their cats, Cheese and Tux. She is represented by Bridget Smith of JABberwocky Literary Agency. Last Chance Books is her first novel.
