I Stand with The T – Public Thread

Karin Kallmaker 01/16/2024 LIFE + STYLE, Sisters of the Pen 6 Comments

I Stand with The T – Public Thread preserved from the implosion of Bird Site. Trans people are part of this cis lesbian’s queer family.

Lacking in Graciousness and Generosity? So Be It.

Karin Kallmaker 01/02/2018 Business of Books 7 Comments

I sell my work for money, like a dentist or a house painter. I am a professional. That means I won’t work for someone else to profit while I get nothing. That’s not what professionals do. If that means I’m not gracious or generous, so be it.

Reblog: The Lucky Ones by Lise MacTague

Karin Kallmaker 06/15/2016 LIFE + STYLE 2 Comments

A profound and lyric essay by Lise MacTague that resonated with me and I think will with many of you.

We know we’re the lucky ones because we’ve survived. It could be worse. But many of the things we feel “lucky” for are things no one should have to endure.

Embrace Your Superpower

Karin Kallmaker 02/13/2016 Cheers & Chocolate, LIFE + STYLE

I was enjoying the great outdoors at the mall, like you do, and had the opportunity to wield my Superpower. Not the writing one, the other one.

Random Shiny Things

  • Reader Comments about Warming Trend
    Great writing, smart story with fascinating, unusual, and well developed characters. People you would like to know.
  • Cowboys and Kisses Reviewed at Jude in the Stars
    This is a very interesting book, as much for the story as because of who wrote it. There’s not a single second of doubt that this is a Kallmaker book. Her style is everywhere.
