Women We All Should be So Lucky to Know

GCLS 2009 – Orlando!

Karin Kallmaker 07/23/2009 Events and Appearances, Sisters of the Pen

What is this item? That’s a mousepad, and it’s up for silent auction to benefit the GCLS Scholarship Fund. Why is it special? It’s a copy of one I customized for myself to motivate me to meet my deadlines. Maybe it’ll help the winner more than it has me.
