Karin Gillespie

Meet Karin Gillespie, the Rogue Magnolia.

I like Lilly P. clothes but only paired with a black leather jacket. I don’t have the patience for a mani-ped but I always have time for a conversation about books, the Buddha or the best barbecue ribs below the gnat line.

I’m not a Steel Magnolia because, instead of forbearing within the system, I’m more interested in exploring its flaws and busting up the status quo.

My characters reflect who I am: unconventional, creative, and endlessly curious. They also reflect the South: colorful, kooky, and sometimes deeply flawed.
