Before our first book was published we asked each other, "What are we going to call ourselves as publishers?" We tossed around several choices but settled on KALM, as much because it combined our initials as the reminder to keep "CALM" at all costs.
Humor inspired Sisters by Heart - Partners in Aging. After the crises and the near catastrophes, when the shouting died away, there was the ability to laugh - together, at ourselves and certainly at one another.
Humor has eased the load, lightened the moments and turned our wrinkles upside down.
Without a doubt, the reservoir of adrenaline that has built up in us is the result of the fun and satisfaction we have derived in almost thirty years of applying our individual talents to a common goal.
Life has to have meaning. Being important to each other is just one of the ways we bring meaning to our lives. We have found serenity and great contentment in the challenges and pleasures we have shared.
With age has come wisdom and integrity and the ability to speak our minds. It's no longer a secret that we live for each other.
As a result of out self-publishing experiences we developed a booklet called How to Build A Book - Produce, Publish and Promote Your Written Work. We sell these for $3, plus postage. Enter a comment into our Blog.
