Kelli Kassoff is a poet and short-story writer who isn't afraid to dive into the raw and real parts of life. Her writing explores everything from love and loss to the tougher themes of dehumanization and exploitation, all while embracing the messy beauty of being human. Inspired by her own experiences, Kelli crafts stories and poetry that connect on a deep level, pushing boundaries and inviting readers to feel it all.

Her latest book, Unraveled, has made waves, hitting #2 on the bestseller list in all three of its ISBN categories (Love Poetry, Grief/Loss Poetry, and Poetry By Women) and landing at #41 in all Fiction and Literature bestsellers. A deeply personal and emotional collection, Unraveled has received praise from literary journals and magazines, and Kelli has been featured on multiple podcasts to talk about her writing journey and the stories behind her work.

She lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband and kids and is currently working on her next book—an intense, emotionally charged short story collection—set to release in late 2025.
