Elin Kelsey: Hello. My name is Elin Kelsey. Elin is spelled funny, it's E-L-I-N, and oftentimes when I'm at a book signing, people don't see the bottom line on my first E and they say, "Hey Flin, hey Flin." So I have to get used to answering to Elin or Flin. Also my last name, Kelsey, turns out to be a very popular name for golden retrievers in parks, so many times when I'm out walking around my neighborhood, I hear people saying, "Kelsey, Kelsey, Kelsey come." So I have to look and see if it's someone calling me or someone calling a dog. Even though my name is very ordinary, Elin Kelsey, it's very easy for me to be Flin or a dog.
