(about)

kiarra ledbetter or kiki nicole, depending on the circumstance, is an undergraduate student at hollins university studying english and creative writing. a baltimore native, she currently lives with her mother and younger sister in charlotte, north carolina. she has contributed to all of the literary magazines offered by hollins, to online publications such as bitchtopia mag and the pulp zine, and to roanoke's local women's publication, bella magazine.

she writes poetry and short stories and anything and everything else from her dorm room with the help of copious amounts of caffeinated beverages and blalock's indie rock playlists. when she's not writing or completing assignments, she can usually be found reading, de-stressing with inane reality television or eating oatmeal. she's hoping to complete her first real chapbook by the summer of 2014.
