True Confessions about Made-Up Things

  • The Queen of Cups Bookstore (In Every Port) is entirely fictional. The experience of a young closeted woman visiting an out and proud women’s bookstore for the first time – not quite so fictional.

  • Karin’s favorite sarcastic-inside-voice heroine is Leslie from Embrace in Motion. Marian the Librarian (One Degree of Separation) thinks that’s a load of crapspackle but would never say so out loud.

  • Karin feels it is completely inappropriate that the two-word titles of two of her novels are now one word: rollercoaster and carpool.
