To the Girly-Girls Who Like Girls

Karin Kallmaker 10/20/2010 LIFE + STYLE 4 Comments

If you’re a young femme in school and you really want the purple shoes, the fabulous purse and the supermodel hair, but the gay kids give you a hard time for not looking gay enough — that gets better too.

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.

  • 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.

Featured Published Things

  • A glowing young black woman with natural hair and red lips looks over her shoulder through mottled light at the Grand Canal and skyline of St. Marcos Plaza in Venice. A glass of deep red wine is in the foregound. Text reads A Coin of Love Romance, Velvet in Venice, Karin Kallmaker, Goldie and Lammy Winning Author Velvet in Venice - Paperback $13.95

Random Shiny Things

  • Warming Trend at The Lesbian Review
    This is a beautiful romance, a story of two people who are so destined to be together that no matter how big the gulf between them they can find a way to overcome it.
  • All the Wrong Places at the Lesbian Review
    ...Steamy sex, family drama, and all the angst you could hope for with a main character falling for her straight best friend.
