Hi! I’m Kelly. Welcome to “G2K”

Sometimes you just have to get out of your own head and hear about someone else’s experience. Or maybe you just want to learn something new. That’s why I created this Substack newsletter. It gives me an excuse to snoop around, try to understand, and share with you without being annoying.

I am Kelly Allen and I live in Seattle. My “regular” work bounces between teaching, marketing, and writing. I have a boyfriend who serves tapas in a local Basque-style Spanish restaurant and we share our apartment with a grey kitty, Ella, and the center of all attention, Pablo the Wonder Puppy.
