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.

Color Nook Report plus Drawing Winner Chosen

Karin Kallmaker 02/03/2011 Readers and Libraries

Once again, thank you to everybody who gave me the benefit of their experiences. As promised, my house elf has helped me pick a random winner of two free books from my library — print versions — signed, sealed and delivered.

Nook Color Review

The Search for My Perfect eReader 2; Nook Color It Is

Karin Kallmaker 12/26/2010 Readers and Libraries

The Search for My Perfect eReader; Win 2 Books for Your Advice

Karin Kallmaker 11/30/2010 Readers and Libraries

You can probably tell that I won’t be buying a new one every 6 months — whatever I buy needs to fit my needs for 2-3 years. See, I only just gave up my Palm Pilot as obsolete. That’s how long I can milk a platform.

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – Women Who Know Who They Are
    Admiration for strong women in history was one of the reasons Faith Fitzgerald in Wild Things is a history prof and biography writer. Plus that's what she explained were her studies, so it's not like Karin had a real choice in the matter.
