In this episode of The Curvy Literary, Keshia sits down with the incomparable Kelly Reynolds—romance author, podcaster, and the voice behind Fiction, Feminism, and Fat Girls on Substack. If you’ve ever cracked open one of her holiday novellas or swooned over a baseball daddy in the Rose City Roasters series, you already know Kelly brings the perfect combo of spice, sass, and smarts.


We dive into her journey through romance writing, the stories behind her fan-favorite series (yes, we’re talking about Coach Daddy), and why fat, feminist, and inclusive storytelling is more necessary than ever. From the highs and hilarious WTFs of publishing to the power of newsletters like Smut Street and Boob News, Kelly doesn’t hold back—and that’s exactly why we love her.


Expect real talk, romance recs, and a sneak peek at what she’s working on next (hello, Desert Daddies). This episode is a joyful, no-filter celebration of writing with heart, heat, and unapologetic representation.


Hit play—you’re in for a good one.
