A Goodreads user asked Linda Kage:

My dear Linda, the more I read and listen to PRICE OF A KISS and the other FORBIDDEN the more I get curious about your habits as a writer, so these are my questions today: do you keep paperback copies of your novels at home? If you do, how many for each novel? Are they kept in a sort of your private library or in another place safer? Do you keep them clean or do you highlight passages and write notes on the margins?

Linda Kage Hi, hi, hi! Yes, I do keep copies of the paperbacks at home, mostly because lots of people like to order the signed ones (with swag!) off my website. I used to try to keep at least one around for myself but then I'd find myself with only that one copy left and someone wanting one, so I always gave it away! I don't make note or highlight anything because honestly, I'm too afraid to re-read through them again after I push publish. I know I'll find something I'll want to change and it'll bug me to n end that it's already published and so many people have read my boo-boo. So I mostly don't go back and revisit them so I can't freak myself out!! I know, it's a strange mental tick, but we all have those, right?! (Geesh, I hope so!) My husband was kind enough to take my first 12 books and have them framed in two frames for a Christmas present. They look really nice and they're hanging in my hallway.
