You’ve reached the home page for the writing and personal projects of Karma Bennett.
I write about politics, music, books, social issues, mental health, technology and business. The common thread that ties these together is that elevate stories or ideas that not enough people are talking about. This could be a new angle on a story in the news, street reporting from grassroots political campaigns or simply your new favorite band.
My latest project is a training workshop on effective organizing with direct action.
What about book marketing?
For many years, I’ve been known in the Bay Area as a book marketing strategist and, formerly, a book publicist. This site showcases my editorial and creative writing, which is separate from client promotional work. Some commissioned articles—like thematic lists, interviews, or features I wrote for companies—appear here. These were written on assignment but reflect my editorial judgment, not paid endorsements. All client work that appears is clearly labeled, and my writing reflects ideas I originated and developed.
If you’d like to view my book marketing /PR advice or work samples, find it in the archive. For information on my web design business, see WordPressBlogsforWriters.com.
