Lacking in Graciousness and Generosity, Part 2

Karin Kallmaker 07/31/2013 Business of Books 6 Comments

I don’t know an author who hasn’t had another author post BUY MY BOOK links on their space. Cover art, links to buy, the works. It’s rude, people.

Do You Review? Blog It!

Karin Kallmaker 05/31/2011 Awards and Reviews, Business of Books, Readers and Libraries 2 Comments

I’m surprised by how many don’t realize they owe it to their own body of work—which is what you call a collection of creative endeavors such as writing down opinions—to share it as widely as possible.

Writing, Reading and LESBIANS – Really.

Karin Kallmaker 05/01/2011 Business of Books, LIFE + STYLE

But that list also says that “lesbian” is only 72% relevant as a word related to my site. Huh? 72%. I assure you, it’s 99.9% relevant.

No Bang. Lots of Whimpering.

When pirates think someone has taken something that belongs to them they whine, completely unaware of the irony.

2 Million Words – How Many is That?

Karin Kallmaker 09/15/2010 Book News, Business of Books, Unforgettable

I also like sometimes to simply sit and look at my books, as if my shelf were a garden. Whenever I finish a project I like to take a little bit to see how my garden grows.

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – Making Up for Lost Time
    Pretend you're something you're not and hope for the best. After all, the lie only has to last a few days. Making Up for Lost Time started with this basic premise of a screwball comedy, with inspiration from the hilarious Christmas in Connecticut, starring Barbara Stanwyck.

Random Shiny Things

  • Wind in Her Hair Has You Rooting for Love
    The writer has crafted the characters well, and you can't help but empathise with Irene.
  • Sugar at MegaScene
    A light, frothy story that is just possibly as light as the cakes made by the main character.
