• Getting to Know Mads from Maybe Baby

  You met Laney. Now it’s time to meet Mads, the Dane who turned her life upside down. Imagine Laney and I are sitting in a pub not far from where he lives in the Nørrebro district in Copenhagen. It’s another cold day and he’s bundled up in fisherman’s sweater with what looks a thermal shirt…

• Getting to know Laney from Maybe Baby

  As we creep closer and closer to Maybe Baby’s release, I thought it would be fun to share with you the character interviews I made while I was writing the novel. First one up: Laney. Imagine Laney and I are sitting in a wine bar somewhere in Copenhagen. It’s a frosty day and she’s in…

• According to the survey… and a Maybe Baby teaser

  Thanks so much to everyone who participated in last’s week’s cover survey. The majority of you (52%) preferred Cover 1. A little over thirty percent preferred Cover 2 and the rest didn’t like either cover and wanted another hottie. I think I will go in the direction of Cover 1 but look for another image.…

• Which do you prefer…?

  While I’ve been working on Maybe Baby, I’ve also been working on three novellas (though one may turn into a full-fledged novel) in the Maybe Baby “universe”. One of the novellas revolves around Mads, the Danish sperm donor, who turns Laney’s head. Think of it as a prequel: the story takes place just before Mads…

• Maybe Baby…and its progress

  For the last year, I’ve been hard at work at finishing Maybe Baby, which I’ve blathered on about on Facebook and on Kim Talks Books. Maybe Baby was my NaNoWriMo 2012 novel, and it was so much fun to write, even if it deals with infidelity, a subject that is not everyone’s cup of tea.…

• The start of something new

  A few months ago, I began toying with the idea of having a site that was devoted solely to my writing rather than having a book review blog that sometimes gets hijacked by talking all my babbling about my writing. From now on, if you want to find out what I’m reading, go here. If you want…
