“The publishing game is a difficult game to play. If I were in it for financial gain, I'd be gone. If I were in it for awards, accolades, and acknowledgment, I'd be gone.

In the end, for me it's all about love...” Kim L. Dulaney Kim L. Dulaney .jpg) Kim L. Dulaney lives in Chicago, IL with her two children.
