Is your book club reading one of my books? Drop me a line, tell me about your club, and perhaps I can phone in when you meet. In October, I visited with the Hadassah Book Club in Jacksonville, FL, and in December, I joined a Women's League book club in Orlando!
Cheers, Karen

Cast of Characters Includes My First-Ever Short Story |
|
I’m a proud member of Novelists Inc., the only writers
organization devoted exclusively to the needs of multi-published novelists. On
April 3, 2012, we are publishing our first-ever fiction anthology, Cast of Characters. More than a year in
development, Cast of Characters is a
huge volume of original fiction. It’s nearly five hundred pages long, and it
includes twenty-eight original stories, eleven of which are from New York Times bestselling authors. You
can read more about it here.
We’d like to get Cast
of Characters off to a big start, so we’re hoping that you’ll join us in
buying a copy on Tuesday, April 3. You can get it from Amazon,
Barnes
and Noble, Apple
and all other online booksellers. The e-book retails for $6.99, and it’s less
than $6.00 at both Amazon and B&N, which is an extraordinary price for this
much great fiction.
At the same time, Novelists Inc. is offering a free e-book
of “set pieces” from upcoming member novels. You can get this volume free at
the Novelists Inc. website,www.ninc.com.
I'm thrilled that my first-ever short story, Down Under, is included in the anthology, and I can't wait to hear what you think about it.

Mi molto rallegro di annunciare che Edizione Armenia in Italia pubblichera mio libro, The Book of Names in italiano!
For those who don't understand Italian -- I'm very happy to announce
that Edizione Armenia has published The Book of Names in Italian.
Finally, after seven books, my first one published in Italian,
to the great excitement of all my Italian relatives and friends who

Good practice for me, too, to read The Book of Names in Italian!
