I published a new book today...
...and I’m trying very hard to remain calm about it.
Hi friends,
It’s finally here. Release Day.
Five years of writing and revising and doubting and believing… and today, All You Have To Do is officially out in the world.
I don’t even know how to explain how surreal this feels. This book has been a part of my life for so long — through a pandemic, through unexpected publishing detours, through all the wild and messy in-betweens. It’s a story that broke my heart and stitched it back together again. And now it’s no longer just mine.
Today, Eleanor and her journey of grief, resilience, and letting people in… belongs to readers.
💛 If you’d like to support the book today, here are the easiest ways:
✔️ Buy a copy (paperback + ebook):
✔️ Ask your local library and/or bookstore to bring it in.
✔️ Share a post or story with the cover and a link because word-of-mouth is everything.
✔️ Add to Goodreads as a Want to Read or, even better, Currently Reading. LINK
✔️ Leave a quick review on a retailer site (even one sentence helps more than you know!!)
✨ Why this one matters so much
I’ve talked about how emotional this book was to write — losing her son changes everything for Eleanor. She has to figure out who she is when the life she wanted is no longer an option. She has to accept help when she’d rather shut down. And she has to believe that starting over is possible… even when she’s not sure she’s strong enough.
It’s not a story about grief.
It’s a story about what comes after.
And I hope, more than anything, that readers who need that reminder will find it here.
Thank you from the bottom of my happy author heart for being here, for cheering me on, and for caring about a story that has meant so much to me for so long.
I can’t wait for you to meet Eleanor.
💛 Kelly
P.S. If you see All You Have To Do out in the wild (on a shelf, in a package, in your hands)… please send me a pic and or tag me. I plan to cry happy tears every single time.


Just picked up my copy! Congratulations!
So exciting! Can't wait to read it!
