She attended Sam Houston State University, and wrote for her college newspaper, "The Houstonian." She majored in English, and minored in Journalism, reveling in her creative writing classes.
As a public school English and Theatre teacher, she enjoys seeing the impact that literature can have on the lives of children.
“I have literally seen the impossible become possible, through children who were inspired by stories,” said Keithley.
While she has many unpublished short stories, Descending Olympus is her first novel. She plans on the story progressing to a trilogy. The next book is titled, “The Apple of Discord.”
Velvia Keithley currently lives in Huntsville, Texas, and is married to David Keithley, a school psychologist. She has two amazing daughters, Ashlea Nicole, who recently began serving her country in the United States Navy, and Johanna Grace, as precocious a 4th grader as they come.view less
